The Stupa of Phra Maha That, Chaiya, Surat Thani

The Stupa of Phra Maha That, Chaiya, Surat Thani



The Phra Maha That is one of the most sacred and important monasteries in the south of Thailand. The structure of the stupa of Phra Maha That is similar to the Chandi Pawana Chedi in Indonesia.



The main Tower standing in the center is a round chedi serving as the upper story of a relic chamber or an image house. Kirti Mukha mask motifs can be seen above the chamber similar to those found in Java.
