[Mahatai Temple] Which temple is the most famous in Dacheng? I guess ten people will answer Mahatai. After all, by coincidence, the temple has a tree-holding Buddha landscape, which is also used as many cover designs of Dacheng's brochure. It can be said to be a beautiful business card of Dacheng. The temple is located in the eastern part of the Forbidden City. It is not particularly far from the railway station and bus station. It can even be passed on foot, closer to the Pabi Bridge. It was built in the period of King Polomaro I. The function of the temple is mainly to place sacred relics of the Buddha. It belongs to the Royal temple. There are 209 pagodas and 10 monasteries in the Central Plains of the temple, but most of them are only foundation. The temple has a central tower, surrounded by small pagodas with niches and temple-style pagodas. The central pagoda is built of laterite and then painted with plaster. The lotus bud-shaped top pagoda is called Sukhotai style, which is different from other countries'pagodas. Mahatai Temple is a very big place. There used to be quite a lot of Buddhist pagodas. So it takes about an hour to walk around now. Especially when you are holding Buddha in the tree, many people are around it. After all, it is the most famous place and a fairly legendary story. It is said that during the war, when Buddha head rolls over there, a tree grows from it. When it grows up, the Buddha's head is surrounded by tired days and months. The Buddha's smile is also a bit meaningful. It is amazing the divine power of nature. The temple is also the most visited place for tourists in the big city, so there are bathrooms, super parking lots, all of which are quite good, and even outside there are places where snacks are sold. The coconut frozen here is good, but the price is relatively expensive, 501. As a toll-paying attraction, the ticket here is 60 baht per person, and the joint ticket is 255 baht.

    Wat Phra Mahathat, Thailand, was a royal temple of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. It is one of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya as it housed the Buddha's holy relic. Many important royal ceremonies of the Ayutthaya era had been hosted here. When the Ayutthaya Kingdom failed in 1767, Wat Phra Mahathat was severely damaged by fire and was since abandoned. The temple is located in the area of the Ayutthaya Historical Park nowadays. Attractions in Wat Phra Mahathat of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya include remains of important old buildings such as pagodas, octagonal pagodas, royal hall, small temples, murals under a Bodhi tree, and the famous sand-stone Ayutthaya-style head of the Buddha image in a tree's root.

    Came on February 6, 2023. Mahathir Temple and some other ancient relics in the surrounding area are collectively called "Dacheng Historical and Cultural Park", and Mahathir Temple is a relatively large-scale relics in the "park". Come to Mahathir Temple, the ruins are sad, and tourists can feel the war on civilization very intuitively. Mahatai Temple also has a very famous landscape, that is, the "tree cradling Buddha head" in the southeast corner of the temple, close to watch, it is really moving... May there be less strife in the world, more understanding and tolerance!

    One of Ayutthaya’s magnificent historical creations gives a mesmerizing glimpse to the people of today. I can suggest this place is a must to visit if you are planning to travel to Thailand.
