Wat Khun Samutthrawat is an intriguing temple located in Samut Prakan, Thailand, known for its unique and resilient presence amidst rising sea levels. This Buddhist temple stands as a poignant symbol of environmental change and human determination. Over time, coastal erosion and encroaching waters have significantly impacted the area, submerging much of the surrounding land. Despite these challenges, the temple remains operational, with its main hall now surrounded by water and accessible via a narrow walkway.
