Wat Thammikarat

Tha Wasukri, Thailand

Wat Thammikarat (Wat Dhammikaraj) is temple ruin preserve as historical site on the city island near U-Thong Road, just outside the Ayutthaya Historic Park, in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Thailand. The temple had undergone multiple restorations. Though many structures remain in ruins, new buildings have been added as it is now an active temple. Key features include Chedi Singh Lom (lit. 'Lion Surrounded Chedi') a large, bell-shaped chedi with an octagonal base, surrounded by detailed lion figures made of brick and mortar with stucco decorations. This chedi also includes multi-headed Naga figures, and remnants of smaller monuments and spires are scattered around it.
