This ancient Temple sits on the Canal-side where the Amphawa Canal converges with the Phi Lok Canal. The temple was built in the Ayutthaya period during the late reign of King Prasatthong. It is likely that ThaoKaeophaluek (Noi), owner of the Bang Chang Market and an ancestor of the royal lineage of Bang Chang, commissioned the temple. The back of the temple once contained the residence of KhunNak (or Queen Ammarinthramat of King Rama I) and KhunBunrot (Queen Si Suriyenthramat of King Rama II). Wat Chula Mani is located on Highway 325 (SamutSongkhram-Bang Phae) between Km 34-35 in Tambon Bang Chang. It is open daily from 8.30 am-4.30 pm.
