Wat Ounalom

Near the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh of Cambodia stands Wat Ounalom, the most important pagoda of this capital city, and the headquarter of Cambodian Buddhism. Founded in 1443, Wat Ounalom received a hit during the Pol Pot era, but come back to life nowadays.

Wat Ounalom contains 44 structures. The main complex has a stupa which contains what is believed to be an eyebrow hair of Buddha and an inscription in Pali. On the second floor of the main building is a statue of Samdech Huot Tat, fourth patriarch of Cambodian Buddhism. On the third floor is a marble Buddha of Burmese origin that was broken into pieces by the Khmer Rouge and later reassembled. Two glass cases contain about 20m-long flags used during Buddhist festivals and celebrations.
