Wat Jom Thong or the “Monastery of the Golden Peak” was located on the city island
in the southern area at Pratu Chai sub-district. The temple was situated south of an
ancient canal called Khlong Chang Maha Chai. Wat Khok Chang was north of the
temple, while Chedi Suriyothai stood on its west.
There are no traces anymore of the former monastery. Houses have been built on the
site. The temple is classified as disappeared.
Historical data about the monastery and its construction are unknown.
Wat Jom Thong is mentioned on Phraya Boran Rachathanin’s map drafted in 1926 in a
nearly identical position as Wat Ket on a mid-19th century map.
