There are four main monuments:
The Reliquary in the shape of a golden chedi,
The Repository of the Canon of Buddhism with its mother-of-pearl
cabinet that displays the palm leaf scriptures at various times of the year.
The model of Angkor Wat crafted by Royal Command of King Mongkut (Rama IV).
The Royal Pantheon where statues of past sovereigns of the ruling dynasty are
enshrined.
Scattered round these monuments on the terrace are fanciful animals in
mythology.
