The current name of the monastery was acquired at the end of the 16th century, when a large chedi was built. In the northeast, you can see a large statue of the Reclining Buddha wrapped in yellow cloth, facing east towards the rising sun. Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, like many other buildings in the area, was destroyed during the invasion in 1767. Great place and worth visiting.

Enjoyable trop, our guide was Johnny or Jom. I think we would have preferred more time at the first temple as we felt a bit rushed and ut was very hot. Saw 3 temples in all and a boat ride. Johnny supplied bread to feed the fish. We were given a small bottle of water at the start of our trip. Only downside was when we got to the last temple via the boat, rather than stopping at the steps, we had to scamble over some slippy stones and then scramble up a grassy bank. I'm pretty sure older people wouldn't have managed this! Still enjoyed the tour, I thought we might have been given options for a meal/snack as our trip started at 2pm, we got back to the pickup point just before 8pm, so were starving!
