Wat Sangka Tha วัดสังขทา
Wat Sangkha Tha is located on the city island in the southwestern part of Ayutthaya. The temple is licsted in the Somdet Phra Sri Nakharin Park. Wat Sangkha Thae and Wat Chedi Yai are nearby Wat Chao Phram and several other ruins are located just east of here.
Being part of the Somdet Phra Sri Nakharin Park the ruin has been restored by the Fine Arts Department. The site consists of two monastic structures, an ordination hall and a wihan, both with a chedi.
Two other monastic structures are also nearby. A wihan called Wat Sangkha Thae or the "Monastery of the True Monkhood" and likely a bell or drum tower.
The whole complex is surrounded by a moat. All buildings were probably originally part of one temple but early maps show them as two seperate temples.
Its historical background and period of construction are unknown with most records being destroyed during the fall of the city to the Burmese in 1767. The Royal Chronicles of Ayutthaya mention an important ...
Wat Bowon Sathan Sutthawat (วัดบวรสถานสุทธาวาส), also widely known as Wat Phra Kaew Wang Na, stands as a quiet yet significant royal temple within the grounds of Bangkok’s former Front Palace, now part of the Bunditpatanasilpa Institute complex near the National Theatre and close to the Bangkok National Museum. Unlike ordinary temples, this sacred site has never housed resident monks, serving instead as the private chapel of the Front Palace in much the same way that Wat Phra Kaew functions within the Grand Palace.
Its story begins in the reign of King Rama I, when Prince Maha Surasinghanat established a small convent called Wat Luang Chi for royal women of Khmer origin to observe religious precepts.
By the time of King Rama II the buildings had fallen into disuse and were cleared to create a rabbit garden. Under King Rama III, Prince Maha Sakdiphonlasep, the Front Palace ruler of the day, dedicated the land to a new temple as an act of Buddhist merit and ...
Thailand has dominated the ASEAN Championship (formerly AFF Championship), claiming a record seven titles in 1996, 2000, 2002, 2014, 2016, 2020 and 2022, along with multiple final appearances that underscore their status as the region’s most successful side.
Vietnam has emerged as a consistent challenger in more recent decades, securing three championships in 2008, 2018 and 2024 while regularly reaching the later stages and building a fierce rivalry with their Thai counterparts through several high-stakes final meetings.
The first leg of the 2026 ASEAN Championship final unfolded at Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok on 22 August after earlier rain. Thailand, coached by Anthony Hudson, controlled much of the opening period with greater possession and created the clearer chances, including a notable miss by Yotsakon Burapha when clean through. Vietnam, the defending champions under Kim Sang-sik, remained compact and patient, relying on solid defending and goalkeeper Patrik Le Giang to keep the ...
