"Vihara"
The Vihara is a replica of the Bot (also called Ubosot) and is used to keep Buddha images. In central Thailand the Vihara is smaller than the Bot.

The Vihara is often enclosed by a gallery walled outside and open inside having generally square pillars to support the roof. Along the galleries are many Buddha images modeled in stucco or cast in bronze. In a few cases the walls of the verandah are decorated with paintings.
