Located on the Chao Phraya River’s bank in Tambon Pak Khlong
Bang Pla Kot, the chedi was once settled on an island surrounded
by the river before the water level decreased that it later
connected to the mainland. Tucked behind the Phisuea Samut
Fortress, this chedi was constructed since the reign of King
Rama II but was completed during the reign of King Rama III. The
original height of the pagoda was 20 meters before King Rama IV
ordered the change on the shape of the pagoda and increased the
height to 38 meters while inside contains the Buddha’s relics,
image of Buddha’s posture of Phra Ham Samut (pacifying the
ocean) and an image of well-known monk, Phra Chai Wat.
