Temple built in the early 19th Century. It is lined by Chinese figures and statues and has a large reclining Buddha image in one of the larger halls. Originally on this site stood Wat Chomthong, but it was renovated and renamed in a 14 year effort after a boek khlon thawan ceremony was held here in order to prepare troops for the invading Burmese army. We visited Wat raja-o-rot in 2001 as one of the first temples and re-visited it in 2008 On our second visit we were able to get the Ubosot opened for us so we could pay our respect to the wonderful statue of Phra Buddha Anatakhun Adulyabophit, a Bangkok-style image ordered to be built by King rama III. The temple is ancient, having existed since the Ayutthaya period. Wat raja-o-rot is a first class royal monastery or Wat raja-o-rot wiharn.
