Hello everyone supposedly we're going to Ayutthaya but this time while we're waiting for our friends um let's enjoy first the shopping here in the shopping mall [music] Hello everyone this time we are going now to you Ayutthaya see you there. Hello Teerak (means darling) so this time after an hour of travel so we need a toilet first okay see you again later bye! after a toilet break now we are going to our destination Ayutthaya see you soon! Hello Teerak our first stop is at WatYaiChaiMongKhol (big temple of Chai MongKhol) is located a few kilometers southeast of Ayutthaya. You'll have to cross the Pridithamrong bridge out of the city. It obviously is one of the major temples in the Ayutthaya area, and both tourists and local worshippers visit the Wat.
Logistically, visiting this temple can be well combined with a visit to Wat Phanan Choeng (open till 5 P.M.). Enjoy your travel Hello Teerak, we are now inside the temple now, as you can see there we have the reclining Buddha behind my back. In the North East corner of the grounds are the remains of the Viharn Phra Phuttha Saiyat, the Viharn of the Reclining Buddha image.
The hall was constructed during the reign of King Naresuan. A yellow cloth is draped around the huge image that faces East towards the rising sun. The image’s feet are covered with gold leaf applied by devotees.
The Buddha image has been restored in 1965. The temple was founded in the second half of the 14th century during the reign of King U Thong, first ruler of Ayutthaya. A chedi and viharn were built, the temple was named Wat Pa Kaeo. Wat Pa Kaeo became an important temple when it was made the seat of the Supreme Patriarch of the forest sect of Buddhism.
The monastery got its present name after construction of the Chedi Chai Mongkhon in the late 16th century. During the Burmese invasion of 1767 the temple was largely destroyed. In 1592 the battle of Nong Sarai took place, one of many battles between Ayutthaya and the Burmese. During the battle Ayutthaya King Naresuan moved forward and attacked the Burmese Crown Prince Minchit Sra in one to one combat on war elephants. King Naresuan killed the Burmese Prince with his sword, after which the Burmese army retreated. On return to Ayutthaya the King ordered the Chedi Chai Mongkhon built to commemorate the victory over the Burmese.
The battle is depicted on the seal of Suphan Buri province. The temple’s main structures being the principal chedi, the principal viharn and the ubosot are lined up on an East West axis. Surrounding them stand a number of subsidiary chedis in various styles and state of repair and the kuti, the monks living quarters. In the North East corner are the remains of a viharn enshrining a very large Reclining Buddha image. The center of the temple stands a raised platform holding the massive main prang (chedi) and two mondops.
At each of the platform’s four corners stands a small version of the prang. A stairway on the East side leads up to the entrance of the 60 meter tall bell shaped chedi. Visitors can climb up to its interior. Inside a small chamber are several images of the Buddha covered with gold leaf applied by devotees. Visitors can have a view into the excavated chamber where relics were enshrined.
Two mondops, square brick buildings enshrining a large image of the seated Buddha, flank the chedi on the East. Surrounding the platform is a gallery connecting in the West to the principal viharn. Lining the gallery walls are hundreds of Buddha images draped in yellow cloth seated on pedestals in subduing Mara mudra. The gallery’s wooden roof has long gone. West of the main prang connecting to the galleries stands the principal viharn, the assembly hall, of which only its base remains. To the back of the hall seated on a pedestal facing West is an image of the Buddha flanked by Sariputta and Moggallana, the Buddha’s closest disciples.
To the East stands the ubosot, the ordination hall. Since Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon is an active temple the hall is still used by monks and devotees. The hall’s base and sections of its original walls are still standing while nothing remains of the old roof.
New walls have been erected to the inside of the old walls supporting a newly constructed roof. The hall enshrines an image of the Buddha on a pedestal. Sema stones around the ubosot mark the ordination hall’s sacred area. So this time we are now heading to our next destination.
Hello Teerak! We are now at Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit. It is located on the south side of Wat Phra Si Sanphet. Take the same route as the way to Khum Khun Phaen, Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit is not far away. Phra Mongkhon Bophit is a bronze Buddha image in the attitude of subduing Mara; with a lap width of 9.55 meters and a height of 12.45 meters, it is one of the largest Buddha images
in Thailand. There is no clear evidence of when it was built. It is assumed that it was built in the early Ayutthaya period during B.E. 1991-2145
where King Songtham ordered to move it from the east outside the palace to the west side that is its current location. Also, he ordered to build a Mandapa on top of it in the reign of King Suea. In B.E. 2249, a thunderbolt struck the top of the Mandapa and Phra Mongkhon Bophit caught fire and damaged the upper part of the Phra Mongkhon Bophit. Therefore, it was ordered to be renovated; converted the roof of the Mondop to a cathedral and reinforced the head of Phra Mongkhon Bophit. During the reign of King Borom Kot (B.E.1742-1743) in the 2nd loss of Ayutthaya in B.E. 2310, Viharn
Phra Mongkhon Bophit was burned by enemies and damaged the bun and the right arm of Phra Mongkhon Bophit is broken. Later, King Rama 5 ordered it to be renovated accordingly. For the area beside Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit on the east side, it was originally Sanam Luang; it was used as a place to build the royal crematorium for kings and royalty as well as the Sanam Luang of Bangkok. Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit was rebuilt on the remains of the original temple. Nowadays, it is a tourist attraction in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province, as they always say “Anyone who has come to Ayutthaya but haven't come to pay respect to Luang Pho Mongkhon Bophit, is deemed as not arriving in Ayutthaya at all” There is a large souvenir shop in Ayutthaya in the area of Viharn Phra Mongkhon Bophit.
Luang Pho Mongkolbophit: It is a sacred Buddha image of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya. Currently, there are many local people and tourists who go to pay homage every day. It is also of interest to all foreign tourists in terms of the beauty and greatness of Luang Por. Hello Teerak! We are now to our next destination, Wat Phanan Choeng is a Buddhist temple in the city of Ayutthaya, Thailand, on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River at the south-eastern side of the confluence of the Chao Phraya and Pa Sak rivers. Today, as part of the Ayutthaya Historical Park, the temple is a popular tourist attraction. Flooding has led to an unavoidable rise in canal and river waters in Ayutthaya province, especially at Wat Phanan Choeng, bringing the fish closer than usual to temple visitors, who can almost reach out and touch them during feeding. Fish feeding is a common activity when people visit temples located at rivers or canals.
Wat Phanan Choeng is located in Khlong Suan Plu Sub District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya District Thailand. It is open daily from 8 am to 5 pm. The entrance fee is 20 baht paid at a small booth at the entrance. The temple may be reached from Bangkok by Road Asia highway 32 via public transit the temple may be reached from new Mo Chit station where there are many buses to Ayutthayaa every day. It may also be reached by vans at the victory monument or future
Park Rangsit. One may also take a motorcycle taxi or auto-rickshaw to Wat Phanan Choeng. By train after going from Bangkok railway station to Ayutthaya railway station. One may take a motorcycle taxi or auto-rickshaw to reach the temple. [Music] [Music] In what is regarded as one of the first and certainly most important inscriptions in the Thai language, found carved in an ancient stele, there’s a bucolic description of the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai, part of which reads:“In the time of King Ramkhamhaeng the Great, this land of Sukhothai is thriving. There is fish in the water and rice in the fields.” End quote. Thai historians claim these are the words of King Ramkhamhaeng the Great, ruler of the Sukhothai Kingdom from 1279–1298 and creator of the Thai alphabet, describing his lands during his reign. The mention of plentiful fish, as a way of portraying a nation that is at peace and thriving, shows how important fish have always been to the Thais as a source of food and a symbol of a settled civilization. People, who live in a land where both fish
and rice are abundant, will never go hungry. Of course, fish have long been a source of protein in Southeast Asia. After all, this is a lush region fed by great rivers that wind their way across fertile plains, so fish have always been plentiful. Freshwater fish of
many different species are easily caught in the streams and canals. During the wet season, when fish spawn and when waters are high, they can even be found swimming in flooded fields along with other nutritious treats; such as, crabs and mollusks. To make the most of this bounty, Thai people used to dig ponds to trap and raise fish that were washed in by the floods. Breeding in the floodwaters and easily caught, these fish are regarded as having been given freely by nature spirits to nurture the people. This means that killing them for
food isn’t seen as taking a life in the same way as eating other animals would be – an important distinction in a Buddhist country like Thailand. Sometimes fish stranded by the floodwaters were released back into the rivers and streams as a way of making merit. This tradition survives, but these days many urban Thais who don’t work the fields will buy fish at the temple to release – this gives them a connection with their rural roots. Over the cooler months of
December, January and February which follow the rainy season, the fish are at their best after months of feeding in the nutrient-rich waters. This is the time of year when farmers are harvesting the new rice crop, so food is more abundant than ever – hence the Thai saying, Khao Mai Pla Man or “New Rice Fat Fish” to mean that everything is just perfect. This is that in past times, people were happier when food was most available. These days the phrase is used to describe newlyweds in those perfect early months of marriage. Any remaining fish from the rainy season was dried or salted so that there was ample food for the rest of the year. These techniques of preserving fish have contributed to the unique flavours and textures that make up many popular Thai dishes and snacks – think, for example, of shrimp paste, and dried squid, the tiny dried prawns that go into Phat Thai or dishes; such as, Pla Wan, or the sun-dried -fish Pla Daet Dieo.
We're lucky we know this is a temporary halt. If you thought we'd be tied down forever I don't think I'd be coping nearly as well right now. The hardest part about travel is absolutely going back. Home remains the place you don't want to be. Travel, freedom, and new adventures still call with a voice that honestly is stronger than ever if you set out on an adventure like ours, know what that going home will be unthinkable but for now, we're okay we're treating our return as travel in a different place. See you again soon, Ayutthaya. Bye!!!
