Hidden Ayutthaya [EP 35] : วัดหอระฆัง กับปริศนาชื่อเดิมสมัยอยุธยา | Hidden Creator

Hello, I'm Hidden Ayutthaya. Today, I'm at Wat Prang Hang Neng. Located in the middle of the city. It's a temple located at the foot of Makhamriang Road. This temple is called Wat Porakang. The special thing about this temple is that I came to explore. Because I studied some old documents and maps. So I found the story of this temple. The story of this temple and the name of this temple. The name of this temple is the same as Wat Porakang in Ayutthaya period. The ancient site of Wat Porakang. The main part is Porakang Yai The art of Ayutthaya period. The building has a square shape. Face to the sun. On the building, there is a Chukachee base. The Buddha and a part of the Buddha statue. A small building. And the hole that the artist said. It's another hole. Actually, I think the area of the temple. There is not only this building. But there should be a Buddhist building behind. But in the past. The building that is far from here. There is no building left. Now it has become a deserted area. It's a strange story. The name of this temple. The most prominent point of this temple. To name it. That is Porakang. That makes me think. The name Porakang. It should be the name of the temple. That was built later. From the survey of the abandoned temple. In the period of Rattanakosin. It may be the time of the King. Because this temple. It does not appear in the map. Of the King. But it turns out. The name Porakang. Appears for the first time. In the map. This map was created. On the 6th of November. 2499 B.E. Organized by the survey department. Of the Institute of Art. This map. Has the same structure. As the map of the King. But there is an addition. To the name of some temples. One of them. Appears as Porakang. It means. The survey in the year. 2499 B.E. Found this temple. So. The highlight. The most prominent point of the temple. Porakang. So it was named. Porakang temple. Since then. But when considering the position. On the map. Which was written. In the 4th reign. I found. The position around Porakang temple. It is similar. To the position of the temple. Which appears on this map. Which was written. Wat Trae. When taking the map. To consider the position of the temple. Surrounding Wat Trae. Such as Wat Khun Muangjai. Wat Suvarnararam. Wat Kampang. Wat Khok Phao Khao. When comparing with the map. And the position. On the Google map. We can see the similarity. This Porakang temple. May be the same place. Which appears on the map. Wat Trae. This is the temple. Or the inner temple. In the 4th reign. Which is the important temple. Located in the Chinese community. In Phanakhon. From the inner temple. It is located here. Porakang temple. Wat Trae. May be the famous place. For the ancient people. Since the beginning of Rattanakosin. Until the new temple. In the 4th reign. But it is surprising. When the 5th reign. King Boralachathanin. Explored the territory. Of Ayutthaya. And made the plan. In the 2469 B.E. Which is the 6th reign. The position of the temple. Which is Wat Trae. Will not appear again. But when we check. The documents of the King. Found that. Wat Trae. Appears in the King. Krungsri Ayutthaya. King Jagapadipong. Which has a story. In the reign of King Narai. In the King's diary. He told the story. In the year 1025 B.E. King Yubua. Went to build a cage. At the top of the temple. Got 70 elephants. Destroyed about 400. And entered the temple. When he got up. He went out. All the people watched. King Chayakhan. The youngest son of the King. Told the King. All the elephants. Except King Yubua. Other than that. He was not afraid of anyone. King Yubua. Knew that. King Chayakhan. Pretended to be a king. The king knew. So he answered. Let's ride the elephants. King Chayakhan said. Ride the elephants first. King Yubua agreed. On the appointed day. King Chayakhan. Riding the elephant. 6 inches tall. King Yubua. Riding the horse. 3 inches tall. Set up the cage. In front of the temple. The horse was far from the elephant. King Yubua. The horse was far from the elephant. King Chayakhan. Riding the elephant. Near the temple. The elephant was riding the king. King Chayakhan. He saw the elephant. He rode the horse. The elephant was frozen. King Chayakhan. Riding the elephant. King Chayakhan. He ran away. King Chayakhan. Roing the elephant. Heipmal. Roing. King Chayakhan. Roing. Riding the elephant. On the appointed day. King Chayakhan. Riding the elephant. In front of the temple. On the appointed day. The area that is now the road of Makhamriang River. If you walk out of this building Go out to the road The road is called the Makhamriang River. At this point, it should be an area called Wat Trae Field Which is the field in front of Wat Trae This area is probably the area It will probably be a desolate area. Which made the King sent to set up a field Here to be a point Let the King and the King Come to ride elephants, horses, and horses. When checking the message in the document To Khun Luang Wat Pradu Songtham Which tells about the location of the market area in Phra Nakorn No activities appear again On the western side of the body Which here may be an empty area Enough to be a test field Riding an elephant to chase a horse in the era of Somdet Phanarai Wat Nang The horse of the royal family went to the corner there In the old area plan Both during the reign of the fourth king And the plan at Wat Rang Thuk Chabap Form a straight position That is at the foot of the body The same style as Wat Hora Khang Riding a horse would be long Go along this road Go up to Wat Nang I will take you to see the position of Wat Nang Where will it be This is a road that is smooth Klong Makham Rieng Or Klong Nai Kai During the reign of the fourth king In addition Wat Nang still appears in the area of Engelbert Gamfer Who came in the era of Somdet Phanarai Which in this area plan There is a picture of a brick bridge across Klong Nai Kai In front of the temple Like the one in Phung Sawadaan The small chamber door That the royal family rode a horse into It would be the chamber door Of the wall of Wat Nang Here I try to compare the area Of Wat Nang From the area of both Gamfer And the area of the old area plan During the reign of the fourth king If you look at the distance from Google Maps It turns out that the position of Wat Nang Should be in the area of The parking lot of Wat Senat So it's not surprising The area that is the road Klong Makham Rieng in the present From the front of Wat Hora Khang Go up to Wat Senat Sanaram It is the area where the elephant of Mr. Chaiyakan Will ride the horse of the royal family Up to the brick bridge in front of Wat Nang And finally This story makes us know that The descendants of the successors In addition to Kosa Led Kosa Pan And the royal family There is also a person named Mr. Chaiyakan Another person who is a descendant But it does not appear that Mr. Chaiyakan Is a person who is very important Because looking at the behavior Challenging the royal family To come and ride the elephant Chasing the horse And escape from the competition Go home like this Which looks like It must be a person who has a characteristic That does not seem to be greedy As the successor Decided that Do you know Mr. Chaiyakan is a wild soldier And this is the story of Wat Hora Khang Which I have analyzed From two documents That I brought Tell you that Here actually May have the same name as Wat Trae May be For the exploration of Wat Hora Khang Today, it ends right here.
