NAKHON PATHOM
The first major town to the west of Bangkok is also home to the
world's largest Buddhist monument.
PHRA PATHOM CHEDI
The area around Nakhon Pathom has been settled for millennia, and
the site of Phra Pathom Chedi has been a religious area for centuries.
During his reign, King Rama IV visited the area and ordered the
original crumbling chedi to be built over with the existing huge
golden spire.
