Wat Phu Khao Thong is an ancient, striking Buddhist temple located in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Thailand. Originally built in 1387 by King Ramesuan of the Ayutthaya Kingdom, the temple features a towering white chedi (stupa) that dominates the landscape. The chedi was later renovated in a Burmese style by King Naresuan in the late 16th century after he liberated Ayutthaya from Burmese control. The temple's name translates to "Monastery of the Golden Mount," referencing the chedi's impressive height and historical significance.
