Located at Tambon Bang Ka Cha, about I kilometre from Noen Wong Fort, the old chapel in Thai style architecture is interesting; including the replica of a Buddha image placed inside which differs from others in the style. They were constructed when King Taksin arrived at Chanthaburi. The more interesting aspect is the old rectangular stupa that was used for making potent water by magic for the King. The most interesting attraction is the wooden architecture called “Sam Sang”, a place for cremating a dead monarch. It is the oldest in Thailand. Unfortunately, it has only the basement remaining.
