Wat Yai ChayaMongkol
It looks similar to the famous Ang Ko Wat temple, but this is in Thailand. Established 660 years ago and was proclaimed by the King U-Thong as the royal temple then. The temple had been the place of many important historical events. It was the seat of the Buddhist patriarchs and monks of the Forest Tradition which was noted for the practice of meditation and insight. The name “Temple of Victory” was derived from the Chedi built to commemorate the renowned victory of King Naresuan over the massive Burmese invasion in 1593. There is also a huge reclining buddha statue and the main Ordination Hall next to this stupa.
