Wat Chai Mongkol is located almost at the end of Pattaya South Road - about 450 meters from the main beach and the entrance to the famous entertainment district on Walking Street.
It was built around 1937. A monk on a pilgrimage set up his tent on the site where this beautifully decorated temple now stands.
The impressive and ornate temple has a prayer hall with an interesting four-sided roof. This houses a Chinarat Buddha image and a Chai Mongkol Buddha statue from Ayutthaya, which is more than 350 years old and dates from the Sukhothai era.

Many people are amazed that a royal temple is located in this district. Wat Chai Mongkol is located almost at the end of Pattaya South Road - about 450 meters from the main beach and the entrance to the famous entertainment district on Walking Street.
Of course, the temple was here long before tourists! It was built around 1937. A monk on a pilgrimage set up his tent on the site where this beautifully decorated temple now stands.
Locals responded to the monk's presence by building houses and other structures. Finally the temple was built. The original name was Wat Thap Phraya.

A large beautiful temple. I visited only in the outside area of the buildings. It's a very beautiful complex and the territory is large.
Many markets just opposite of this temple.

I went around 6 pm on Tuesday but I couldn’t enter inside buildings. It is a large beautiful temple. I visited outside of the buildings and I enjoyed it.

Very beautiful complex, the territory is large, beautifully decorated. You can go inside and have a look, but like everywhere else in temples you need to cover your shoulders and legs

Nestled amidst the bustling energy of Pattaya, Wat Chai Mongkhon emerges as a tranquil oasis, inviting visitors to embark on a serene journey of relaxation and reflection. Our experience at this peaceful monastery was nothing short of enchanting. As we strolled through its serene grounds, a sense of calm washed over us, gently carrying away the worries of the outside world.
The architecture of Wat Chai Mongkhon stood as a testament to Thailand's rich cultural heritage. Traditional Thai-style buildings adorned with intricate details painted a vivid picture of devotion and craftsmanship. Each step revealed a new facet of the temple's beauty, from the delicate brushstrokes of vibrant murals to the gentle curves of elegantly crafted statues.
Amidst the soothing ambience, we found ourselves pausing to contemplate the profound mysteries of life. The temple's serene aura seemed to encourage introspection, as if the very walls whispered timeless truths to those who listened. It was a place where one could escape the frenetic pace of the city, a sanctuary for quiet contemplation and inner peace.
Wat Chai Mongkhon also proved to be a haven for photography enthusiasts. Every corner held the promise of a captivating shot, each frame capturing a harmonious blend of natural beauty and human artistry. The play of light and shadow lent an ethereal quality to the surroundings, making it an ideal backdrop for capturing moments of quietude.
In the heart of Pattaya, Wat Chai Mongkhon offered more than just architectural marvels; it offered a respite for the soul. Our leisurely stroll through this hidden gem left us refreshed, rejuvenated, and profoundly moved. Whether seeking solitude, seeking solace, or seeking to capture the essence of Thai spirituality in a photograph, this temple proves to be an inviting sanctuary of beauty and serenity.

I wanted to thank the monks for praying over my Beautiful Auntie Somkid. The ceremony was wonderful. The temple is very beautiful. Please visit this temple 🛕 to see how amazing it really is.

Occupying a large site it provides a stark contrast to the rather seedy side of Pattaya very nearby. Judging by the size of the accommodation blocks, there must be alot of Monks living here. A few interesting temple buildings on this site two of which you can go inside. Large controlled parking area on the Temple site also.

Peaceful temple with variety way to pray 🙏🏻 I came here couple times before on the night time for meditation on Buddhist holiday. The place is nearby city centre, so it's pretty close with everything with a lot of parking lots.

Best place for parking if you want to visit the walking way. But better take a grab. You really don't want to experience the traffic 😄

An amazing park full of beautiful trees and plants with flowers where you can walk from temple to temple,admiring works of art of different styles. Definitely worth a long visit.

Beautiful Place, came to have a peace for 1 hour.
Located right in Central Pattaya, the temple isn't big.

Nice temple in the heart of Pattaya.
If you want to disconnect from the pace and madness of Pattaya this is the right place for you

I visited this place on the day of Thailand's Makha Bucha. Unreal atmosphere and a very strong experience for me. And thanks to a beautiful Thai girl who showed me everything.. ;-)

Very nice pagoda/temple near the local market.
I had a nice experience to do almsgiving early morning. Basically preparing food, waiting and handing them to the monks; it is a kind of traditional activities in Buddhist.
