Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, Buddhist temple ruins in Ayutthaya Historical Park, Thailand.

Three tall chedis arranged in a row stand as the central structures of this former royal temple within the ancient palace grounds.

The temple, established in 1350, functioned as the principal royal monastery during the Ayutthaya period until its destruction by Burmese forces in 1767.

The temple design influenced Buddhist architecture throughout Thailand, with its triple-chedi layout becoming a standard model for royal temples.

Visitors can purchase admission tickets at the main entrance of Ayutthaya Historical Park, which provides access to multiple temple sites including this monument.

The temple previously housed a 16-meter high Buddha statue covered with 340 kilograms of gold, which was melted down by invading armies.
