Wat Pho Prathap Chang, Buddhist temple in Pho Prathap Chang district, Thailand

The temple complex contains a large Vihan with standing walls, multiple small Chedis, and double walls surrounding the entire site.

King Phra Chao Sua constructed the temple in 1701 at his birthplace during the Ayutthaya period of Thai history.

After three centuries of abandonment, the remaining structures exhibit architectural elements from the Ayutthaya period, reflecting Thai Buddhist temple design.

Located 27 kilometers from town on route 1068, the temple grounds feature numerous trees providing shade for visitors exploring the ancient ruins.

The temple grounds contain several trees over 200 years old, growing among the archaeological remains of this registered historic site.
