Meet Us at Central Bangrak Department Store Address: 1522 Charoen Krung Rd. Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500 in front of Starbucks coffee shop on time 13.00 hrs.

Built in the 13th century, it is one of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya, as it housed the Buddha's holy relic.

Stop 3

Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, or "Great Monastery of Auspicious Victory". Its distinguishing feature is the high prang (tower) dominating the area. The temple is old and was built in the second half of the 14th century during the reign of King U Thong. Interestingly, it is still active and monks live in it. The current name of the monastery was acquired at the end of the 16th century, when a large chedi was built. In the northeast, you can see a large statue of the Reclining Buddha wrapped in yellow cloth, facing east towards the rising sun. Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, like many other buildings in the area, was destroyed during the invasion in 1767. Great place and worth visiting.

It is one of the most iconic and well-preserved temples in Ayutthaya, known for its impressive Khmer-style architecture and scenic riverside location. Everyone will go for late afternoon and sunset. Many local people dressed in traditional clothing pray in the evening which makes the evening even more interesting.
