Next to the ubosot is a small wihan called “WihanKiean” built, during the reign of King Rama III, by Phraya Chai Wichit (Peuak), as it features mural paintings depicting Chinese junk trade and stories of the Lord Buddha’s past lives. This wihan also houses a large Buddha statue, in quite unusual seated position, created in Dvaravati period, one of the six found in Thailand. Moved from WatMaha That in Ayutthaya, this statue “Luang Por Khanthararat”was made of dark green limestone. It is believed that this statue was once enshrined in a temple in NakhonPathom province.
