Wat Pho Kao Ton (Wat Mai Daeng)

Located in Moo 8, Bang Rachan Subdistrict, this is the place where the Bang Rachan heroes used as a stronghold to resist the enemy who invaded Ayutthaya in 2308 B.E. The villagers call this temple Wat Mai Daeng because there are many red wood trees, which are hardwoods, within the temple grounds, and the villagers have taken good care of them. Within the temple is Viharn Phra Ajarn Thammathikot, a four-faced pavilion. Phra Ajarn Thammathikot was highly respected by the Bang Rachan villagers and was a source of encouragement in their fight against the enemy.

About this Place

In addition, there is the Phra Ajarn Thammathikot pond and a shrine for the collective souls of the Bang Rachan heroes, located near the fence. At the front of the temple, a replica of the Bang Rachan camp has been built according to history. The Fine Arts Department registered Wat Pho Kao Ton as an ancient monument in 2498 B.E. Within Wat Pho Kao Ton, there is also the Bang Rachan Retro Market, a unique market with a retro atmosphere.
