Wat Jitraram, Jitra (30 July, 2016)
Wat Jitraram (GPS: 6.26581, 100.42848), also spelled Wat Chittraram (Thai: วัดจิตราราม), is a Thai Buddhist Temple in
Jitra, Kedah. It is located in Kampung Sungai Baru. The temple has a Thai-style ordination hall and other auxiliary buildings. It is partly visible from the
North-South Expressway, which was how I discovered it. Upon seeing the temple as I was travelling along the expressway, I decided to exit the expressway and look for it. It took me a little while of searching, but I eventually arrived at the temple, for which I am now able to show the GPS coordinates.
