Khao Chee Chan Buddha statue

#PattayaTravel Khao Chee Chan Buddha statue stands out from afar with a large golden Buddha statue carved on a limestone cliff of Khao Chee Chan, 109 meters high, built in 1996 by Somdej Phra Nyanasamvara, Somdej Phra Sangharaja, the Supreme Patriarch of Thailand, because he felt sorry for the scenery of Khao Chee Chan due to the explosion of the mountain to make a runway for the Air Force - US Air Force base during the Vietnam War. It is a Buddha statue sitting on a lotus in the Mara-Vijaya posture, imitating the Phra Buddha Navarat Bophit in Sukhothai art mixed with Lanna. In front is a pond and a beautiful garden. There is also a place to pay homage to the Buddha statue for those who believe in it to bring good fortune.
