Wat Yansangwararam Woramahawihan or Wat Yan (Thai: วัดญาณสังวรารามวรมหาวิหาร, RTGS: Wat Yannasangwararam, pronounced [wát jāːn.nā.sǎŋ.wá(ʔ).rāː.rāːm] ) is located in Huai Yai in the Chonburi province of Thailand. It is a large Buddhist temple complex with gardens and lakes and has been under the patronage of Bhumibol Adulyadej.[1] Most of the buildings at Wat Yansangwararam were erected in honor of the Thai Royal Family.[2] The temple is a replica of the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya, Bihar, India.
International pavilions with ornaments around the adjacent lake and statues of revered monks, also of Bhumibol Adulyadej and his mother Srinagarindra, the Royal Grandmother, in the middle of parks offer the opportunity to walk for hours and study.[3]
