Concern for Confused People: Affects World Heritage Sites
Sarut Boonyanont, a tourist who posted on Facebook, said that after visiting the Prasat Hin group in southern Isan it was discovered that the names of ancient Thai archaeological sites such as Prasat Ta Muen, Surin province, were completely changed to the name of Prasat Dam Rei. For Prasat Nong Hong, Buriram Province, and it was replaced with the word “Lung Phrom” added even though it does not border Cambodia. Surprise Until you go to Sukhothai Historical Park, Sukhothai Province, try going to Google Maps to find a place to visit. I found the same characteristics With the addition of the word “Lung Brahma”
For example, Wat Chang Lom, Sukhothai changed to an archaeological site of Wat Lung Phrom Chang Lom As a tourist, I am confused. Finding confusion AND seen as harmful to the World Heritage site Because that does not match the name of the Department of Fine Arts AND if it is not resolved, it may be a problem in the future.
In addition, consultations were made with the Department of Fine Arts. To report such matters Because it is not just an ancient site But there are still many temples in Bangkok that have found wrong name changes. You want to change the name to match the name you have registered again Ready to invite if someone is near a historical site That has been renamed Help edit by inserting photos. And check the name to return to the original
