Description

Wat Prasat, or the Monastery of the Castle, was located in the southern part of Ayutthaya’s city island in the Pratu Chai Sub-district. The restored ruin stands on the premises of the Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Hospital near the intersection of U Thong Road and Si Sanphet Road.

The monastery was situated between Khlong Pratu Chai and Khlong Chakrai Noi. It stood near the beginning of one of the city's most important roads at that time, the Maha Rathaya Road, also called Thanon Luang. This smooth, paved laterite road, about 12 meters wide, ran through the centre of the capital and linked the Royal Palace with the southern city gate.
