Wat Sri Sunthon or Wat
Sri Sunthorn or Wat Si Sunthon, วัดศริสุนทร, is
located in Sri Sunthon (ศริสุนทร), Tha Lang (ถลาง), Phuket (ถูเก็ต), Thailand.
Wat Sri Sunthon is named
after one of two sisters, the Heroines of Tha Lang, Thao Sri Sunthon and Thao
Thep Kasattri. In 1785, the sisters rallied the people of Phuket to
defeat the invading Burmese army. At the time their names were Chan
and Mook, but King Rama V later gave them these honorary names. Wikimapia location |
