Wat Sao Thong Thong is on the Northern side of Koh Kret. Around the temple’s ordination hall there is a cluster of chedis built over 100 years ago. To the extreme right, the Phra Thutangkha Chedi, the largest in Pak Kret district, is circular in shape with 12 indented corners and sits on a square base. It dates back to the Ayutthaya period. It is surrounded by 12 smaller chedis. In front of the ordination hall there are two chedis. The left one is shaped like a star fruit, the right one is circular. A little to the left of the ordination hall is a tall takian tree with a shrine to the tree spirit Nang Takian and a shrine to twin statues of Kuman Thong.
