Na
Phramen Temple
Formerly
known as Wat Phra Merurachikaram, Na Phramen Temple is an
ancient monastery dating back to the 13th century, which has
largely escaped destruction in the successive wars that have
ravaged Ayutthaya.
The
most interesting objects in this restored temple are the principal
seated Buddha image, fully decorated in regal attire, and
another very old image of black stone in the smaller viharn.
Wat
Na Phramen is situated opposite the Ancient Palace, on the
north bank of the Lopburi River.
