Phra Sri Ratana Chedi, Buddhist pagoda in Wat Phra Kaeo, Thailand.

The Phra Sri Ratana Chedi rises 40 meters high within the Wat Phra Kaeo complex, covered entirely in gold leaf that reflects sunlight across the temple grounds.

King Rama I commissioned the construction of this pagoda during the late 18th century as part of the Grand Palace complex to house important Buddhist relics.

The pagoda functions as a central point for Buddhist ceremonies and royal rituals, representing the connection between Thai monarchy and religious traditions.

Visitors must wear appropriate clothing covering shoulders and knees to enter the temple grounds, with admission tickets available daily from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM.

The structure contains sacred Buddhist relics and stands directly in front of the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, forming a primary element of Thailand's royal religious complex.
