Prathai District, Thailand
Nang Ram,
N/A
Wat a surprise This prasat is maybe for the more hardcore. It is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. The roads are terrible. That said,totally worth the visit. This was a hospital station. It is not large. The hospital and the prasat have been rebuilt to a certain extent. The surroundings are well kept.You get an idea of the size and layout of the two buildings. Typical of Khmer architecture water is also a feature. There is a small idol in the stupa,within the prasat,that is being actively worshiped,and most likely under the care of the temple next door. According to one of the caretakers,most of the good stuff archeological wise,has been removed,and is in the museum in Phimai. If you have an interest in Khmer architecture Prasat Nang Ram is well worth a visit.

Not an easy place to find, due to no signage. Prasat Nang Ram is situated at Baan Nang Ram, Nang Ram District. Take a highway number 2 (Nakhon Ratchasima – Khon Kaen) and keep going for 62 kilometers until you reach at Baan Wat junction. Turn right to a highway number 207 for 22 kilometers and pass by Baan Yha Kha. Turn left to Prasat Nang Ram entrance for 4 kilometers. If you have a GPS use the following coordinates: N: 15.502933 E: 102.622930 These coordinates will take you to the car parking area by the sanctuary. This Khmer sanctuary was built in the 13th century A.D. by King Jayavaraman VII of the Khmer Empire. It was a hospital or \Arokayasala\ in Mayayna Buddhism. The sanctuary comprise of two groups of buildings.There is one group of pagoda which is in a very good condition, the middle of the pagoda has a terrace which faces the east. There is a monastery made of laterite located on the south west side of the pagoda with the laterite wall enclosed it. The entrance gate of the place is situated on the east and the plan of the place is in a cross sign. There is one man-made pond on the north east of the place. There are three more pagodas located next to Prasat Nang Ram and it lays all over from north to south. While, only the base, the door frame and sandstone lintel are left with the laterite wall and horseshoe-shaped canal. There are some exquisite stone carvings on the lintels above the doors, these are typical Khmer carvings some of the best examples in Thailand. See the attached photos.
