Thailand: A modern Khmer-style prang at Wat Chakkrawat, Bangkok

Image description

A prang is a tall tower-like spire, usually richly carved. They were a common shrine element of Hindu and Buddhist architecture in the Khmer Empire. They were later adapted by Buddhist builders in Thailand, especially during the Ayutthaya Kingdom (1350-1767) and Rattanakosin Kingdom (1782-1932). In Thailand it appears only with the most important Buddhist temples. Wat Chakkrawat is famous for its live crocodiles and also a small grotto containing what is called a Buddha shadow. Visitors press gold leaf on the shadow shape.
