Historic Mon Temple - Wat Ku - Site of Rama V’s Queens Death
This Mon style temple located on the bank of the Chao Phraya River in Pak Kret, Nonthaburi. It was constructed in the Thonburi period. Inside the old chapel, the walls are finely decorated with paintings in the Mon style. The temple is known as the area where the shipwreck of King Rama V's queen took place. A palace has been built to commemorate her on the river bank.
Her body was temporarily placed in the monastery before lying in state in Bangkok.
The ship was salvaged later and kept in the dock near the ancient wiharn that enshrines a big reclining Buddha.
There is also a pavilion constructed as another remembrance to her death in the Bang Pa-In Palace.
The temple with the murals in the Ayutthaya style ordination hall, giant reclining Buddha and the shrine to the late queen make this a great place to visit. Worth a few hours of your time.
Enjoy the video!
