Description

Wat Pho Chai (Rang) is a not restored ruin located within the Portuguese settlement, off the city island in the southern area at present Samphao Lom Sub-district. The temple's name could be translated as the Monastery of the Victorious Bodhi Tree; "Rang" stands for "vacated". The monastery is located south of Wat Phraya Phan. Several scholars believed the ruins to be the location of the Portuguese Jesuit Church of San Paolo until excavations performed by the Fine Arts Department in 2008 CE concluded it must have been a Buddhist monastic site.
