Mondop in Wat Arun
Mondops, like many other structures in Thai architecture, may serve to enshrine a holy object or to catalog and store objects used in religious ceremonies.
The Mondop resembles the Mandapa of Indian temples with a square plan, cubical form, and a pyramidal roof.
The superstructure is formed by a series of receding stories with the same decoration descending from the Indian cell. In version, the roof is decorated all over with mosaic composed of small pieces of porcelain.
