Neighboring provinces are (from north clockwise) Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Pathum Thani, Bangkok, and Nakhon Pathom. Nonthaburi is the most densely populated province after Bangkok. The Bang Kwang Central Prison is located here.

• Wat Chaiwatthanaram - Situated on the bank of the Maenam Chao Phraya, west of the City Island, Wat Chaiwatthanaram was built in 1630 by King Prasat Thong to honor his mother. The temple was designed as a replica of the Angkor Temple.

One of Ayutthaya’s most visited historical sites, Wat Chaiwatthanaram rests on the Chao Phraya riverbank, west of the City Island. Commissioned in 1630 by King Prasat Thong to honor his mother, the temple features architecture influenced by Cambodia’s Angkor temple. Its unique feature is a large central prang (Khmer-style pagoda) surrounded by smaller prangs, symbolizing Mount Sumeru, the gods’ mountain in Hindu belief. The temple’s nighttime lighting enhances its exotic beauty.

• Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Lokayasutharam) - This monastery is over a kilometer behind Wat Suanluangsopsawan, adjacent to Wat Worachettharam. It can be accessed via the road inside the Distillery Plant compound or the road behind the Phlapphla Trimuk (three-gabled roof pavilion). The monastery is located in the Ancient Palace area. Continue past Wat Woraphot and Wat Worachettharam to reach the open-air site of the large reclining Buddha, which is made of brick and covered with plaster, and is approximately 29 meters long. The ruins of large hexagonal pillars near the image are believed to be the remains of the Ubosot.

• Wat Phra Sri Sanphet - Wat Phra Si Sanphet was located within the Grand Palace compound—the foundations of which are still visible—and served as the royal chapel, similar to Wat Phra Kaeo in Bangkok. This Wang Lung Palace (Royal Palace) was built by King U-Thong upon the city’s founding. Initially used as a residential palace, it was converted into a monastery during King Ramathibodi I’s reign. When King Borom Trai Lokanat ordered the construction of new living quarters, this residential palace was transformed into a temple, leading to the establishment of Wat Phra Si Sanphet. During Ayutthaya’s peak, this was the city’s largest temple. The three main chedis, which have been restored, contain the ashes of three Ayutthaya kings.

• Wat Mahathat - Wat Mahathat is located in front of the Grand Palace to the east, next to Pa Than Bridge. The temple is believed to be one of Ayutthaya’s oldest, possibly built by King Boromaraja I (1370-88).

Wat Phra Mahathat, Thailand, was a royal temple of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. It is one of the oldest and most significant temples in Ayutthaya’s history, as it housed the Buddha’s holy relic. Many important royal ceremonies of the Ayutthaya era were hosted here. When the Ayutthaya Kingdom fell in 1767, Wat Phra Mahathat was severely damaged by fire and subsequently abandoned. Today, the temple is part of the Ayutthaya Historical Park. Attractions at Wat Phra Mahathat in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya include remains of important old buildings such as pagodas, octagonal pagodas, a royal hall, small temples, murals under a Bodhi tree, and the famous sandstone Ayutthaya-style Buddha head entwined in a tree’s roots.
