WAT TAWET
Wat Tawet is located south, off the city island, West of Khlong Khu Cham and south
of the Chao Phraya River; opposite the ruins of
Wat Tha Hoi.

In situ is an unrestored ruin consisting of a brick mound covered with vegetation. The
front wall of a monastic structure is still standing. The site could have been surrounded by
a moat.

Its historical background and period of construction are unknown. The site has been
victim of treasure farming in earlier times.
