Wat Bang Kacha วัดใหม่บางกะจะ also known as Wat Mai or the new temple is located to the south of the main island of Ayutthaya. The monastery is strategically situated on the
confluence of the Chao Phraya River and the Pasak River, just opposite the Phet Fortress and the old harbor. Wat Nang Kui is situated on its northwestern side. To the east, on the opposite side of the river stands Wat Phanan Choeng.

This area was part of an outpost known as Ayodhya Pura, centered around a Khmer sanctuary likely on the site of the present-day Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon.
The exact construction date and historical details of Wat Phra Non remain unknown, but the Royal Chronicles of Ayutthaya offer a potential reference. In 1659 (the year of the boar), a group of 2,214 Cambodian ...
