Discovering Wat Sanam Chai: Ayutthaya’s Hidden Riverside Gem

Wat Sanam Chai (วัดสนามไชย) is a small, active Buddhist temple located in the historic region of Ayutthaya Thailand, outside the main city island.

It is situated in the Ban Pom Sub-district (ตำบลบ้านป้อม), along the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, approximately 5-6 km southwest of the Ayutthaya Historical Park’s core ruins. This places it in a quieter, riverside area amid lush greenery and local communities, away from the major tourist crowds. The temple is affiliated with the Maha Nikaya sect of Thai Theravada Buddhism and serves as a local place of worship rather than a prominent archaeological site. Its name translates to “Temple of the Victory Field,” evoking themes of triumph and prosperity, which aligns with Ayutthaya’s royal and military heritage.

History

The origins of Wat Sanam Chai are rooted in the Ayutthaya Kingdom (1351–1767 CE), a period when Ayutthaya was the thriving capital of Siam (modern Thailand), known for its grand temples, ...

Ratchaburi 1-0 Port FC Thai League Football September 13th 2025

The Thai League 1 clash between Port FC and Ratchaburi FC took place on September 13, 2025, at Ratchaburi Stadium.

This fixture in the 2025–26 Thai League 1 season featured high-flying Ratchaburi, sitting comfortably in 2nd place with strong attacking form (averaging 1.63 goals per match), against a mid-table Port FC in 7th position, known for their solid defense but recent inconsistencies (1.67 goals per match on average).

Historically, Port FC holds the edge in head-to-head encounters, winning 11 of 24 meetings against Ratchaburi’s 4, with 9 draws and an average of 2.60 goals per game—suggesting a potentially open, entertaining affair.

Port’s recent form shows resilience, with a 60% win probability in their last five outings (3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss), while Ratchaburi has been more mixed (2 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses) but thrives at home.

This match may be pivotal for both sides for end of season standings.

The game outcome was disappointing for Port and they are showing that ...
