Revisited In Year BE2566 - Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihan - Phra Baromathat Chedi - Nakhon Si Thammarat - Thailand.

I'm blessed by the gigantic the Pagoda standing in the middle of the city center. It was veritably an iconic gem kind of a cultural and religious heritage. As soon as you step onto its grounds, you'll be in awe of the stunning architecture and the serene atmosphere. The towering chedi, adorned with intricate details and gold leaf, is a sight to behold. Inside, you'll find an array of Buddha images, relics, and beautiful murals that showcase the rich history of Buddhism in Thailand.
In early morning came to Wat Mahathat Woramahawihan, it a revered site for worshipping the relics of Lord Buddha (believed to house a tooth of Gautama Buddha). Personally i like this temple and always visit once come to Nakhon Si Thammarat.
The beautiful Yaowarat Gate of temple Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihan.
During the time I visited 7.30am morning, the Grand Pagoda (Phra Baromathat Chedi) gate door still not open yet (open everyday at 8.30am morning). Luckily other prayer building open for visit at this early morning time. (***please see my older posted for this temple to see more photos of inside area of Phra Baromathat Chedi).
