Wat Phraphut Saiyaram seen from Nittayo Road (Route 22) located between Sakon Nakhon town and Ban Tha Rae - 747J+7F Chiang Khruea, Mueang Sakon Nakhon District, Sakon Nakhon, Thailand. This new temple was built not long ago next to the old historical temple.
A Buddha lying in a relaxed position in a reclining pose, the back is in a nearly horizontal position. A sign on the floor says: (source a smart phone translation) The word of worship, Luang wrapped in Phra Non (Phra Reclining) (Set Namo 3 b) Saiyen, Nama, Maha Therana, Katitang, Si Sai, Phutthang | Atang Wan Tami Sotthime Hotupphatha Translated.

Burial niches in which the cremated remains of people are kept. These burial niches can be found in all Buddhist temples. The name of a person is indicated with an inscription. Wat Phraphut Saiyaram also has a long stone wall in the front part that has many of these niches. There is also a crematorium on the grounds of the temple.
The imposing roof of the building consists of twelve parts that are connected to each other aesthetically.
Many exterior wall paintings on the walls of the temple tell a story about the Buddha.
The outside of the building is also decorated with interesting stucco patterns that have to do with the life of the Buddha in various forms. Unfortunately, this part of the temple has lost its original charm due to the effects of the weather over many years.
The picture gives a good insight into the materials (laterite, cement) used and the structure of the workmanship in a detailed view of the construction of the chapel.
View of the back of the temple where the reclining Buddha is located. Btw the word sim stands for the main building of a Buddhist temple. Music events are often held on the grounds to keep interest in the temple alive. So it's not surprising, as the video shows, the modern music can be heard for miles.
