Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon, Ayutthaya, Thailand The main exhibit of this temple “Wat Yai Chaimongkhon” is a bell-shaped Chedi. You can climb up to its platform to enjoy the stunning view of the temple.

Regarding Thai history, the temple had a bond with King Naraesuan's reign. In 1592, when King Naresuan conquered the war with King Uparat of Myanmar, King Naresuan built a big chedi as the symbol of the conquest. The chedi was named "Chaimongkhon". Many Thai people called it "Chedi Yai". After that, these names were combined together into "Wat Yai Chaimongkhon". 20 minutes

The food offered was veey cheap. Also the car was too old and uncomfortable. The guide didn't know anythi g about the history of the temples or summer palace. The experience is nice just to see the temples and arrived to the last one by boat is nice. However is not 1 hour trip in boat as they mention.

Lin and Ole were amazing. From the responsiveness even before the tour, to the change in pickup location, to their stamina in the Thai heat!
Going around 5 temples in the Ayutthaya was a great way to experience and learn a bit about Thai history.
The boat ride at the end was a great cap to the trip.
