In the northeast of the city, 500 metres from Rop Mueang Road, the temple is most notable for its preaching hall designed in the shape of a sailing junk, which was awarded the prize as the best avant-garde religious building from the Siam Architects Society in 1973. Enshrined here is a large standing white Buddha image. On the front of the door is a plaster sculpture of Thao Suranari sitting and praying in the middle of a pond.
