Wat Ratchaburana is a spectacular Buddhist temple located in the Ayutthaya Historical Park in Ayutthaya, Thailand. Originally built in 1424 by King Borommarachathirat II of the Ayutthaya Kingdom, it was constructed on the cremation site of his two elder brothers. This temple is famous for its breathtakingly beautiful central prang, decorated with mythical creatures and lotus flower designs. Visitors of this temple can explore its crypt which features faded frescoes and many Buddha images to admire. Those looking for an enchanting adventure should put Wat Ratchaburana on their must-visit list.
