วัดสนวนวารีพัฒนาราม

ตำบลหัวหนอง, TH

Wat Sanuan Wari Phatthanaram (Thai: วัดสนวนวารีพัฒนาราม) is a Mahā Nikāya Theravāda Buddhist temple, or wat, in Hua Nong, Khon Kaen, Thailand. Constructed in the early 1920s, is known for its Isan hup taem (ฮูปแต้ม, 'mural painting' in Isan) depicting scenes from the Vessantara Jātaka and Sang Sinxa

y decorating the ordination hall (สิม, sim). A more modern, Bangkok-style wat was constructed on the site in 1997, with the old sim remaining in place for tourists and private ceremonies. Despite its value as a work of local Isan culture, the old sim has received only minimal preservation and restoration work.
