So, either walking north from Wat Phan Tao, or right out of the cafe and left at the traffic lights, up Phra Pokklao Rd, look out for the sign on your left and take the small Soi on the right into Wat Duang Dee.

Maybe you’d like to stop and buy refreshments from the Thai shop opposite the sign, very friendly people, look out for the colourful windmills. And stroll in to the lovely grounds of this recently restored and historic Temple. The renovation is almost finished and the landscaping that has gone with it makes for a very pleasent visit, though the sand used at the front tends to get in between your toes.

Another very small compound means this visit could take a very short time, although the Monks here will always be happy to sit and answer questions, so it will be as long as you choose.

There is a beautiful , smaller temple building to the left of the front of the main Wat and a Scripture repository that appears to still have its original teak wood doors.                  
From the front of the Temple you will see the back gate to Wat Umong Mahatherachan.
