The temple construction began in the 1800s in the reign of King Rama III and was completed in the reign of King Rama IV. The annual temple fair is held on the 12th lunar month, for nine days around the November full moon. During the fair a red cloth (reminiscent of a monk's robe) is placed around the Golden Mount while the temple grounds hosts Thai traditional theatre, food stalls and traditional shows.
