Wat Chaiyamangkalaram was built in 1845 on a piece of land granted to the Siamese community in George Town by Queen Victoria. The land, a diplomatic gesture to promote trading ties between the British Empire and the Siamese Rattanakosin Kingdom, was presented by the then Governor of the Straits Settlements, William John Butterworth, to four female Siamese trustees. A reclining Buddha statue is a must see here. 10mins walk away.

Measuring 33 metres long, it is said to be the third largest of its kind in the world and signifies Buddha’s total detachment from worldly matters during the last days of his life. Famous as Buddha’s final resting pose before his death, besides the lounging Buddha statue you can also find smaller Buddha sculptures in various guises and positions around the temple, as well as those of Thai deities. Furthermore, the temple is also home to colourful murals depicting Buddha’s life story.
