Published caption : Wat Phra Chetuphon Wimon Mangkhalaram or Wat Pho, is considered to be the first university of Thailand. It was constructed during the Ayutthaya period between 1688-1703. During the Rattanakosin Period, the biggest restoration lasted 16 years and seven months in the reign of King Rama III. On the exterior walls of the ordination hall are bas-reliefs depicting the epic Ramakien dating to the reign of King Rama III. Another highlight is a group of four pagodas representing King Rama I, King Rama II, King Rama III and King Rama IV on the temple’s grounds. The temple is open 8am-5pm daily. Admission is free for Thais and 100 baht for foreigners.
