Wat Moli Lokayaram Ratchaworawihan วัดโมลีโลกยารามราชวรวิหาร also known simply as Wat Moli or formerly Wat Thai Talat (Temple at the End of the Market), is a second-class royal temple (Phra Aram Luang chan tho, type Ratchaworawihan) located in Wat Arun Subdistrict, Bangkok Yai District, on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River.
It stands along Khlong Bangkok Yai canal, near the former Thonburi Royal Palace (Wang Derm) and not far from the iconic Wat Arun.
The temple originated in the Ayutthaya period as an ordinary public monastery whose exact founder remains unknown. Its early name, Wat Thai Talat, came from its position at the end of the bustling Thonburi market. During the Thonburi period, when King Taksin the Great established his capital there after the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767, the temple was incorporated into the palace grounds. No monks resided there permanently throughout Taksin’s reign because of its location within the royal precinct.

Wat Prang Luang is a historic Thai Buddhist temple located in the Bang Yai District of Nonthaburi Province, just on the outskirts of Bangkok.
Dating back to the 14th century, it stands as the oldest monastery and archaeological site in the entire Nonthaburi area and greater Bangkok region, with roots stretching over 650 years.
Originally known as Wat Luang or the Royal Temple, it is believed to have been constructed during the early Ayutthaya Kingdom under King Ramathibodi I, also known as King U-Thong.
According to local legend, the king once rested here while leading people away from a cholera outbreak before founding the city of Ayutthaya.
The temple’s most striking feature is its ancient prang, a Khmer-style tower made of brick and adorned with stucco decorations. This leaning structure, roughly 20 meters tall and originating from the early Ayutthaya period, gives the temple its current name and serves as a powerful reminder of its deep historical significance.

It was originally called Wat Khang Khao, or the Bat Temple, because of its dilapidated condition where bats often roosted. In 1950, local residents led by figures such as Dr. Daeng Phumlek renovated the site and gave it its current name, meaning “Temple Supported by the People for the Dharma.” It later received royal land grant status and was consecrated with visungkhamasima boundaries in 1962.
Today, it operates as a royal wat of the Maha Nikaya sect under the current abbot, Phra Kitti Wichirathada.
