Wat Phrong Akat, Buddhist temple in Phrong Akat, Thailand.

The temple features a large golden stupa rising above rice fields, with a two-level structure containing multiple sanctuaries and a cruciform Viharn.

The temple maintains its position as a central religious institution in the Bang Nam Priao district of Chachoengsao province, east of Bangkok.

The main Buddha statue within the Viharn-Chedi represents a replica of Luang Po Sothon, the principal Buddha figure of Chachoengsao province.

Visitors must wear appropriate clothing that covers shoulders and knees when entering the temple grounds, following traditional Thai Buddhist customs.

The temple complex contains a pink Ganesh statue where people communicate their wishes through rats placed at the deity's feet.
