Wat Khao Suwankhiri (GPS: 17.43347, 99.78196; Thai: เขาสุวรรณคิรี ) are the ruins of an ancient hill temple in Si Satchanalai, Thailand. You can catch glimpses of it when you walk along the road in front of Wat Chang Lom. Its name means simply Temple of Suwankhiri Hill.

What Khao Suwankhiri has two bell-shaped stupas. These stupas sit on a square base of five diminishing tiers followed by circular rings around the bell, on which is a platform, a neck with circumambulating figures - like the one at Wat Chang Lom - and a pointed spire comprising multiple rings.
