Wat Lat

Description

Wat Lat is a restored ruin located south of the Pa Than Bridge (in Pratu Chai Sub-district). Its highlights are a large reliquary tower with an entrance on the eastern side and the remains of an old ordination hall. A large face of a Buddha image has survived, and it can still be seen on the pedestal of the ordination hall. Its date of foundation is still a subject of debate. According to some sources, this monastery was used in 1424 CE by Chao Yi and his military troops before fighting his elder brother, Chao Ai, for rights to the throne. Both brothers met their deaths in battle, and two chedis were built for them as memorials. Wat Ratcha Burana was founded in the same year. An ancient canal known as Khlong Pratu Khao Pluak once passed beside the western side of Wat Lat, further dividing it from Wat Maha That.
