About this place

Phra That Doi Thap Chang (พระธาตุดอยทัพช้าง) is a hilltop Buddhist sanctuary in Nong Phlap, Hua Hin District, Prachuap Khiri Khan. Its rounded golden stupa is decorated with elephant figures and surrounded by Buddha images. The original stupa was built by Luang Pho Sai from 78 donated dragon jars in 2008–09. A larger structure enclosing it was completed in December 2013; a new golden finial was installed in October 2023. Call 089 910 2347 to ask about current visiting hours, shrine access and arrival arrangements. Follow the exact temple pin and local signs; the sanctuary is a place of worship. The exterior photograph is by Patrick Le Petit and is undated. It shows the stupa and its elephant decoration; current details and maintenance may differ.
