Wat Nakhon Phosa, Ancient Buddhist temple ruins in Tha Hin, Thailand.

The temple site contains multiple structures, including a red brick Dvaravati chedi and a Khmer-era prang decorated with standing Buddha figures.

The oldest monument at Wat Nakhon Phosa dates back to the first millennium AD, featuring a Mon-Dvaravati chedi from early Buddhist civilization in Thailand.

The structures at Wat Nakhon Phosa demonstrate the fusion of Mon, Dvaravati, and Khmer architectural styles through different periods of Thai history.

Visitors can reach the temple ruins by taking a train from Bangkok to Ayutthaya and following the tourist route through the historical district.

The corner section of the Dvaravati chedi maintains its original form, showing the path where Buddhist followers performed ceremonial walks for merit.
