Wat Maha That Wachiramongkon, Buddhist temple in Na Nuea, Thailand.

The temple features a tall golden chedi rising 95 meters into the sky, with covered walkways adorned by numerous Buddha statues on all sides.

Construction of the current temple began in 1997 when Abbot Phra Ratcha Vajirakon ordered demolition of previous structures except for the ubosot.

The temple hosts regular Buddhist ceremonies where monks and devotees gather to perform traditional rituals and meditation practices throughout the year.

Foreign visitors pay an entrance fee of 50 THB while Thai nationals enter free, with the temple located 70 kilometers from Krabi town.

The temple received its current name from King Rama X in 2006, with initials M.W.K. inscribed on the ubosot's gable marking this royal designation.
