Wat Phummarin Kudi Thong

Wat Phummarin Kudi Thong is a historic Buddhist temple in Suan Luang Subdistrict, Amphawa District, Samut Songkhram Province, Thailand. Located near the Mae Klong River and Amphawa Canal, it is renowned for its Kudi Thong, a historic monk's residence made of golden teak wood. Dating to the late Ayutthaya period and restored in the early Rattanakosin era, the temple features traditional Thai architecture, mural paintings, and revered Buddha images, reflecting the region's cultural heritage.

Visitors can expect a tranquil riverside temple compound centered on the Kudi Thong, a historic teakwood kuti decorated with gold lacquer. The grounds include an old ubosot and viharn with traditional Thai architecture, mural paintings, and Buddha images. The setting is quiet and shaded, near canals and local communities, offering a cultural and architectural experience rather than a large commercial tourist site. Visitors can walk around the main halls, view the wooden kuti from outside, and observe active Buddhist worship areas.
