If you are looking for a tourist attraction in Ayutthaya that is unique and different from the temples in the city island, "Phu Khao Thong Chedi" is a beautiful and valuable check-in point. This massive white pagoda, standing majestically in the middle of a wide field, is 80 meters high. The special feature that attracts tourists is the mixed art of construction. The base is in Burmese architectural style, while the upper part of the pagoda is in Thai art from the Ayutthaya period, which reflects the history of the independence recovery during the reign of King Naresuan the Great.
A highlight not to be missed when arriving at Phu Khao Thong Chedi is walking up the white Naga stairs to the upper balcony of the pagoda. From this point, you can see the scenery of "Phu Khao Thong Field" as far as the eye can see. The atmosphere is quiet and the wind is cool all day long. It is ideal for relaxing and taking pictures on holidays. Especially in the evening when the sunlight hits the white pagoda, it creates a beautiful image that becomes one of the most impressive sunset viewing spots in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province.
In addition to the pagoda itself, there is also a monument of King Naresuan the Great nearby to pay homage and ask for blessings for good fortune. The surrounding area is spacious and well-managed, making visiting here convenient and full of happiness. For those who want to experience the greatness of ancient sites outside the city island, Phu Khao Thong Chedi is a must-list destination for your next trip to Ayutthaya.
