| WAT KHOK 1 (วัดโคก) |
| Wat Khok or the Monastery of the Mound was located on the city island of Ayutthaya outside the Historical Park in Pratu Chai sub-district, just opposite Hua Laem or the "sharp headland". The temple was situated north of a former canal called Khlong Fang, and close to its mouth and water gate connecting, with the present Chao Phraya River. Wat Sing stood south of the temple, while Wat Tuek stood on its north-east. Wat Khok stood behind the Sat Kop Fortress. There are no traces anymore of the former monastery. Historical data about the monastery and its construction are unknown. The site is indicated on a mid-19th century map in an identical position as on Phraya Boran Rachathanin's map drafted in 1926. [1] Wat Khok must have been approximately located in Geo Coord: 14° 21' 23.72" N, 100° 32' 59.06" E.
