Later, after his three victories in the Burmese War, starting with the Nine Armies War of 1785, the Tadindane-Samsop War of 1786, and the Pasannakorn Lampang War of 1787, King Rama I gave the temple a new name. rice field. It used to be ‘Wat Chai Chana Songkhram’, but was later shortened to ‘Wat Chana Songkhram’ and became its current name.

Upon completion, a ceremony was held to bring Bowon’s relics to the Satan Mongkol Palace, where it will be enshrined in 2470.

But what is interesting about this temple is that while like many temples the pediment is decorated with an image of Vishnu carrying Garuda, the Chanasongkhram temple also added a window below the image of Vishnu carrying Garuda. That’s it. But it’s unclear why you need to do this. Another interesting feature of this temple is the pediment frame. Most Temple has a frightened Naga in his frame. Curve the gable frame, but the thing here surprised and cut Naga. Therefore, one of the important characteristics of Omote Gosho craft architecture seen in the temples and palaces built by Omote Gotenushi is that it has a long, uncurved framework like the gable of a typical house.
Ubosot has a large Buddha statue in a submissive mara position as president of the building, measuring 2.50 meters wide and 3.50 meters high, surrounded by 15 smaller Buddha statues, a total of 16 Buddha statues.
