It is located a few minutes outside of Ayutthaya. it was built by King U-Thong in 1357 for meditation. in 1792 when King Naresuan defeated Burmese by killing the Burmese Crown Prince in single-handed combat on elephant, he constructed the temple's large pagoda to match the high pagoda at Chedi Phu Phao Thong which had purportedly been built by the Burmese. This massive pagoda, in ruinous state at the present, is visible from a great distance.
