Prakhon Chai is a district (Amphoe) in the southern part of Buriram Province, northeastern Thailand.<br/><br/> In 1964, artwork depicting Buddhist figures, including Avalokitesvara, was discovered in Prakhon Chai. Originating from the Pre-Angkor period, these figures reflect traditional Indian styles, as passed down through the Cambodian tradition of the Chenla Kingdom.<br/><br/> Avalokiteśvara ('Lord who looks down') is a bodhisattva who embodies the compassion of all Buddhas. Portrayed in different cultures as either male or female, Avalokiteśvara is one of the more widely revered bodhisattvas in mainstream Mahayana Buddhism, as well as unofficially in Theravada Buddhism.
Prasat Hin Mueang Tam is a Khmer temple in the Khleang and Baphuon styles, which dates from the late 10th and early 11th centuries. The primary deity was Shiva, although Vishnu was also worshipped here.<br/><br/> Prasat Meuang Tam was constructed on the orders of King Jayavarman V. Surrounded by a high laterite wall, the complex includes magnificent stepped tanks which have been lovingly restored and filled with lotus flowers. The mellow sandstone of the sanctuary walls and artistically-carved lintels contrasts beautifully with the darker, coarser laterite of the surrounding sanctuary walls. The sense is one of peace and quiet reverence - the more so since this temple is rarely visited compared with nearby Phanom Rung, and much less well-known.
