The area is divided into two parts: Buddhavasa and Sangkhavasa, which are separated by a small road. Inside the Sangkhavasa area, there are ancient Chinese houses whose owners donated land and buildings to the temple. The highlight here is the Chinese archway that still maintains its classic beauty in the style of Chinese art. This archway is characterized by its Sanmen Ding roof, which has a concave roof ridge in the middle and the roof ridge tip is raised up. It is decorated with brightly colored glazed tile patterns. The top of the archway has a house nameplate and a picture telling the story of Hok, Luk, Siu, while the middle and bottom of the archway are decorated with Chinese characters and various patterns. The 'Chinese archway' is not only evidence of the residence of the wealthy in the past, but is also a part of local history and culture, which has been preserved as an ancient site by the Fine Arts Department for future generations to learn and admire. If you have the opportunity to visit Ratchaburi Province, don't forget to stop by and see the Chinese archway.
