Wat Phra Mahathat is a typical Khmer-style architectural style. The overall style is similar to that of Angkor Wat. If you have been to Angkor Wat before, then you will feel a little familiarity. However, it is basically destroyed. Entering into this temple is not allowed to eat. The Buddha statues on the platform at the entrance are still complete, including the stupa behind them. The whole scene is the solemn environment.

Wat Phra Mahathat’s most famous landmark is the Buddha’s head which is holding by the tree, and even becomes an official propaganda of the Ayuttaya tour. In many magazines or travel guide books, the introduction of the Ayuttaya is based on this attraction, so many people’s first impression on Ayuttaya is the Buddha’s head which is holding by the tree. It should be noted that the Buddha statue is a holy god. In the Buddhist culture of Thailand, the you head cannot be higher than the head of the Buddha. Therefore, when taking photos with the Buddha head, it is necessary to kneel down and there will staff at the scene to supervise you. Even if there is only the ruin pedestal of the broken wall, visitors still can’t break in the scenic spot there.

Although only the pedestal has left after the Wat Phra Mahathat has been destroyed, the stupa is still quite intact. The square temple is surrounded by some stupas. The layout is very similar to the Angkor Wat. It is also similar in architectural style, but with different building materials and colors. The Angkor Wat is a stone building, with the gray color; while the building of Ayuttaya is the red brick buildings, and there will be some stucco decoration on the outside, and the overall is red.

For the Wat Phra Mahathat in the afterglow of the setting sun, several statues of relatively large Buddha statues and many broken Buddha statues have a sense of bleakness.

There is a main road into Wat Rong Khun, where you will find that the sacred Wat Rong Khun is surrounded by a white hell vientiane picture. The desperate hands in purgatory, and the distorted faces in the bones, all of which appear the beauty of the decadent.

Wat Rong Khun itself is a temple with Thai characteristics, and the Yaksha gatekeepers are fierce and evil, as if to warn people not to do evil. The dragons on the eaves are all imposing, and look as exquisite as ice sculptures which are covered with snow. There is a wishing card in the direction of the exit, and the aluminum design is very beautiful. There is also a wishing pool in the middle, which is also very beautiful. Countless coins are stacked and presented as a painting through the water.
