Wat Mongkhon Nimit, Buddhist temple in Bang Sao Thong, Thailand.

The main temple building features traditional Thai architecture with a large sloping roof, golden ornaments, and intricate carvings on its facade.

The temple received its official name Mongkhon Nimit in 1953 when it was elevated to royal temple status, replacing its earlier designation of Wat Klang.

Within the ordination hall stands Luang Pho Khao, a Buddha statue that holds deep religious significance for local worshippers and Buddhist practitioners.

The temple complex includes educational facilities where young monks study Buddhist teachings and traditional practices as part of their religious training.

The temple grounds contain 11 smaller pagodas arranged in a circle around a central chedi, creating a symmetrical pattern visible from above.
