🌟Worship and make merit at Wat Tha Khok | Chiang Khan🌟

Wat Tha Khok, Chiang Khan 🪷 is a temple that has been a fixture in Chiang Khan, located near the Chiang Khan Walking Street. What makes this temple unique is its blend of diverse styles. The ordination hall (ordination hall) is designed in a contemporary French style with a touch of Lan Xang art, evident in the windows and surrounding area, which blend beautifully. 🌼History: In 1852, Phra Sri Arkhat, the governor of Chiang Khan, collaborated with the villagers to build the temple to defend against the French invasion that was attempting to colonize the area. The temple's name, Tha Khok, comes from its location on the Mekong River, which, due to erosion, created a whirlpool resembling a toad. The villagers, therefore, named it Wat Tha Khok.🌼 🎗Recommendations: You can walk along the Mekong River to enjoy the view and pay respects to two Naga statues. After visiting the temple, you can park your car there and continue your stroll along the walking street. 🥰 📍Location: Wat Tha Khok, Chai Khong Road, Chiang Khan Subdistrict Chiang Khan District, Loei Province #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck #ChiangKhan #VisitChiangKhan #ChiangKhanIsAChicCity
