  Wat Kanlayanamit Lesser Wihaan

 

Thailand

Whereas the main prayer hall or wihaan of Wat Kanlayanamit Woramaha-wihaan houses the 15.15 meter tall Phra Phutta Trai Rattananayok Buddha statue (fig.), the adjacent lesser wihaan features a somewhat smaller Buddha image.

 

This gilded image is also seated in the bhumisparsa pose and is raised on a high pedestal, and flanked by Sariputta (fig.) and Mogallana (fig.), two of the Ten Principal Disciples of the Buddha. The inner walls of this hall are decorated with intricate murals depicting scenes of the Ramakien.
