WAT MIKRODHARAM - KEDAH

 

WAT MIKRODHARAM TEMPLE

KEDAH - NORTH OF MALAYSIA

 

 

 

As with most of the strongly Thai influenced designed buildings seen in Alor Setar, Wat Mikrodharam is of no exception. A major landmark in Kedah, this Thai Buddhist temple has a beautiful sculptured garden and the main item seen here at this temple is the sculpture of a golden Garuda hovering above the entry to the main hall of the temple besides the grand Buddha statue located in the main hall. Beautiful inscriptions can be seen on the outer walls of the temple grounds giving the temple an unique look.
