The Mon Thep Nimit Buddha Pond is a shrine at the foot of Bandai It Mountain in Phetchaburi. The place of worship consists of structure with a Buddha image seated in the vitarka pose, with in the front a square fenced platform with a large concrete alms bowl. The brick stairway on the right leads to a platform with one large and a few smaller stupas, and is part of Wat Khao Bandai It, i.e. the ‘Mountain Temple of the Brick Staircase’. It was inaugurated on 9 August 1987 in the presence of King Rama IX.
