| WAT RO |
Wat Ro is located off the main island in the southeast sector. It appears on several
maps starting with Phraya Boran Rachathanin's 1926 map.
This monastery was constructed beside Wat Phanan Choeng, but separated by a tiny
canal. This site has since been annexed by Wat Phanan Choeng, which has greatly grown
in popularity.
There is no visible trace of Wat Ro above the ground. Presently on this site, there are a
number of administrative buildings and houses used by Buddhist monks.
There is little known about the history of this monastery. This area is ethnically Chinese,
and it may have been used by this community as a shrine.
