Wat San Pa Yang Luang

History of Wat San Pa Yang Luang: It is a beautiful temple, especially the chapel, which is ranked as one of the 10 most beautiful chapels in Thailand. Phra Khieo Khong chapel was built in 1993 using golden teak and red wood pillars from Laos, Burma, and Thailand. Phra Khru Ba In designed the construction and designed the local patterns, combining the old and the new. When viewed from the front, Phra Khieo Khong chapel has a 5-tiered roof with 5 gables, which represent the 5 Buddhas. The other three at the back represent morality, concentration, and wisdom, which represent the practice of the Buddha in order to attain nirvana. The 5 in front and 3 at the back are 8, which means that one must follow the middle path, which is the Eightfold Path, to attain the Middle Way, and the 9th path, which is the supramundane Dhamma. In addition, inside Phra Khieo Khong chapel is the enshrined Phra Phuttha Anyarat Mahanathi Si Hariphunchai, or Phra Khieo Khong, a Buddha statue carved from Mekong River stones in Ban Don Mahawan, near Laos. There is also the Phra Rod Museum and an ancient temple for those interested in studying.
