The temple is adjacent to the edge of Chao Phraya river on the east side of Bangkok in the area known as Chong Nonsi. The front of the temple faces the east likewise because it is the range where the river flows upward, opposite the side of Samut Prakan's Bang Kachao. The main construction is the ubosot (ordination hall). It is the junk-like bending hall with five rooms, two porches, which looks like Mhaaud Church. The front of the ubosot is made as a second projecting portico, with four pillars supporting the roof timbers. The gable is made as a carved-wooden partition without patterns. The roof is wavy, made of tiles, then plastered with cement adjacent to the eavea. The front of the hall has cetiyas (pagodas) and bai sema (stone boundary makers) stones lined up. The internal part houses the Buddha statue in subduing Mara posture, enshrined as the principal Buddha image, with the other four Buddha images spectacularly arranged in tiers. They are placed in pairs in an indenting way. At the base of the Buddha image, there is also gorgeous stucco with the lion's legs finely designed as the picture of garuda. The inside of the ubosot has mural paintings that narrate Jataka Tales, starting from the left wall of the principal Buddha image counterclockwise until completing ten stories. The front wall above the doorway is painted with the picture of Maravijaya. The paintings at Wat Chong Nonsi represent the pictures of the Ayutthaya period. This temple is one of the places where such paintings are completely extant, which may be contemporary with the paintings at Wat Prasat, Nonthaburi.
