Wat Prot Ket Chettharam Samut Prakan - 200 Year Old Temple - Thailand 2024
Wat Prot Ket Chettharam Phra Pradaeng, Samut Prakan is an important temple established in Rama III's reign. Its architecture received Chinese influence with an exceptional gable decorated with delicate ceramics. It is the only Thai Buddhist temple in Phra Pradaeng, as other temples within the area are Mon style Buddhist temples.
Wat Prot Ket was built by Phraya Phetphichai ( Ket ) during the reign of King Rama II in Chinese architecture style, without the traditional Thai style roof decorations.
Phra Pradaeng was the original center of the area south of Bangkok near the mouth of the Chao Phraya river. Originally named Nakhon Khuan Khan it was settled by Mon people.
In 1815, King Rama II built the Pom Phlaeng Faifa fort at the river bend. The fort is now located in a small park and accessible for visitors.
The temple has several interesting things to see. It’s said to contain the largest reclining Buddha in Samar Prakan as well as a sala that was used by King Eama VIII and Rama IX (when he was the prince before becoming king himself) in 1946.
