Wat Yai Suwannaram (วัดใหญ่สุวรรณาราม)
This is another important temple in the town, situated 1 km. east of the city hall. The main shrine hall
has no windows. It contains 300-year-old mural paintings of mythical angels. The multi-purpose hall,
once located in Ayutthaya's Grand Palace, was entirely built of teak wood and decorated with fine carving
work especially at the door panels. The hall also houses a preaching throne with intricate wood carvings
and gold gilt works of Bangkok design.
