Wat Yansangwararam, Thailand
Wat Yansangwararam Temple near Pattaya, Bang Lampung, Thailand , 2007.
Woramahawihan (Thai: วัดญาณสังวรารามวรมหาวิหาร,)
Wat Yansangwararam is a well-known temple in the area of Banglamung Mountain. Visitor can see a fascinating view from the temple to Pattaya City. The temple was established in order to celebrate the King of Thailand. In this attraction, visitor can find a number of fascinating things such as pagodas from mixed Thai-India art style, and so on. Everyday, there are lots of tourists visiting Wat Yansangwararam. Its location is outside of Pattaya city, but it's not too far to visit.
Wat Yansangwararam ,Bang Lamung Mountains, Chon buri Province, Thailand. ( 3 )
Set in the Banglamung mountains this towering Temple can be seen for miles. I first saw this temple from the Viharnra Sien or Anek Kusala Sala Temple. It’s the Chinese temple mentioned in this book. I asked my friend Sutin who was driving the taxi and he told me all about it. So the following day, I made sure the first trip was to this incredible temple sat in beautifully landscaped gardens. There is a large lake that sets the canvas for this temple, you can see Pattaya city from the top of the tall temple.
As you drive into the temple you enter from a long winding road, on the right hand side is the beautiful lake setting. You are then met by a tall arched gateway leading into the grounds. This lake has several Pavilion halls scattered around it. These interesting Pavilion halls are in various and unique styles, modelled in different nationalities architecture. There are seven built here in the style of Lanna ~Thai, Central Thailand, Singapore ~ Chinese, Chinese ~ Thai , India, Japanese , and Swiss. Each of the halls has an image of dragons playing with water, which represents the kindness of the king of Thailand and are spreading this message to all the Thai people. This area is very beautiful and makes a very relaxing & calming place to visit.
During 1976, Khun Kajorn along with Khun Nithewvadee Aontrakarn offered a large section of land, to Somdet Phra Yarnsangworn the Supreme Patriarch, who was then the head of the Thai Monastic Order. Now, the complex is under the patronage of the current Thai King, King Bhumibol Adulyadej ~ Rama IX, for establishing a temple named Yansarnworn. While establishing the temple, Khun Nithewvadee and Khun Suarree Aontrakarn offered more land and currently the temple now stands in around 366 rai or 146 acres. It was built to honour the Kings of Thailand, past and present
Wat Yansangwararam is said to stand for heaven for those who love to meditate and practice the teachings. Wat Yansangwararam also offers different meditation courses for those that desire to follow this meditation. The meditation classes are held from 6.00 am to 18.00 pm. The location of Wat Yansangwararam is within the Jomtien Area. Visitors need to drive along Sukhumvit Road from Pattaya City to Sattahip, look for the Kilometre 160 marker. After passing Ban Ampher, you will see a sign showing Wat Yansangwararam is on the left hand side. After turning left, carry on for about 5 Km, and you then arrive at the temple area. Visitors who do not have a private vehicle can go there by hiring a taxi or Songthaew.
The main temple building of Wat Yansangwararam is known for its modern design and is built in a very different style to many Thai temples. A pavilion called Mondop or Mandapa contains a replica of a footprint of the Buddha. Inside a large white 40 metre tall Chedi are many priceless relics said to belong to the Buddha and his followers. Two beautiful statues are on display outside of the current King and Queen of Thailand and near is the statue of the current Kings mother. There is a large car park big enough for coaches and taxis and cars. Next to the car park is a large eating hall / restaurant where Thai food can be bought.
Inside the towering temple it’s very modern with modern art and works of art scattered around the interior. Mood music is played while you wander round this unusual temple building. Outside the grass areas are in need of a gardener, it’s a bit of a mess, it could be made so much better and lets the whole area down when the rest of it is very picturesque. Don’t forget to visit the shrine on top of the hill, just follow the road past the temple buildings and the Monks dwellings, keep bearing left and you will come to a large parking area. On your right are the steps to the hilltop shrine. Also within the temple complex is a school and a hospital and nursery and nursing stations for endangered wildlife.

Wat Yansangwararam and Bhudda Mountain Pattaya 2013
Some 20 kilometers South of Pattaya lies the enormous Wat Yansangwararam Temple complex. Set in a huge area of around 145 acres, the complex houses several buildings of very different architectural styles, as well as well kept gardens and a large lake, that make the complex a nice and peaceful place to relax.
Structures of the Wat Yan
When you enter the Temple complex, the first building you will see is the Viharn Sien, a Chinese temple and museum with a magnificent collection of Chinese artifacts and antiques, one of its kind in Thailand.
The main temple building of Wat Yansangwararam or Wat Yan for short, is known for its modern design and is built in a very different style than most Thai temples. A pavilion called mondop or mandapa contains a replica of a footprint of the Buddha. Inside a large white chedi (a Buddhist stupa) a number of relics from the Buddha and his followers are kept.
A number of buildings in different architectural styles, such as Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Lanna Thai and Swiss can be seen in the Wat Yan complex. Besides temples, there are a number of monuments, including one of King Prajadhipok.
The Wat Yansangwararam Temple was constructed in 1976 to honour the Supreme Patriarch Somdej Phra Yanasangworn, who was then the head of the Thai Monastic Order. Now, the complex is under the patronage of the current Thai King, King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX).

Wat Yan
Standing in a certain spot in the Wat Yan complex, you can see the huge golden Buddha mountain (Khao Cheejan) in the distance.
The Wat Yansangwararam and the Viharn Sien can ideally be visited together in one day. The large gardens and lake make for a serene and tranquil atmosphere and are very suitable for relaxation, food and drinks can be bought from the restaurant.
The complex is usually quiet, except on Thai public holidays and on weekends, when it can get busy with Thai people. If you are interested in trying meditation, daily classes are offered at the Wat Yansangwararam at 6 am and 6 pm.
How to get to Wat Yansangwararam
The Wat Yansangwararam Temple complex is located some 15 kilometers South of Pattaya at the kilometer 160 exit of Sukhumvit road. The cheapest way to get there is by local songthaew, also called baht bus, that can be rented as a taxi.
A more comfortable ride would be a private taxi. You can book one through your hotel or on one of the taxi stands in Pattaya. Before leaving, make sure you agree on the price.
Admission & opening hours
Wat Yansangwararam is open daily from 8 am until 5 pm. Admission is 50 Thai Baht per person. As in any Temple, please dress appropriately, which means covered shoulders, long sleeved shirts and long pants or long dress
