 | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  |
Wat Talum Pu was located off the city island in the southern area of Ayutthaya in
Samphao Lom Sub-district.
In situ is a brick mound. There were no traces of any brickwork, although fragments of
broken Buddha images still can be found. It is a quite large site, with bricks embedded in
the soil over a large area.
Its historical background and period of construction are unknown.
The monastery is not mentioned on Phraya Boran Rachathanin's map drafted in 1926.
The site's correct identification cannot be confirmed at present.
