The charm of Koh Yo at Khao Bo Temple, Songkhla

💠Songkhla people invite you to visit "Wat Khao Bo", a charming place on Koh Yo, Songkhla Province. Go to pray for blessings from the sacred objects at Wat Khao Bo, see the view of the lake in front of Wat Khao Bo, take beautiful photos in a natural way. From reading the history of Wat Khao Bo, it is a peaceful and shady area on Koh Yo. It is said that it was built in 1934, which was during the reign of King Rama VII. It is almost 100 years old and is the last temple in Koh Yo Subdistrict, surrounded by mountains and Songkhla Lake. 💠Wat Khao Bo consists of a chapel, a bell tower, various buildings, a sacred well, many religious objects and sacred objects. Luang Pu Thuad, an ancient Buddha statue, a stone elephant statue, I must say it looks very similar. Bodhisattva Guan Yin, Phra Sangkachai 🙏🙏🙏 Highlights 🔆 The sacred objects that attract the attention of people visiting Wat Khao Bo are 🐉 the Naga or Phra Asura Indrahu Naga, which is one of the important sacred objects of the temple. Standing out prominently, it attracts many devotees to come and pay homage and ask for blessings. It is believed that praying to the Naga will bring good fortune and prestige. The large Naga in the form of an open mouth. Devotees can walk through the belly of the Naga, which is a staircase with 138 steps up to the hill where a large Buddha image and relics are enshrined. Currently, the construction is more than 80 percent complete, leaving only the decoration to make it beautiful. We invite devotees to join in making merit. 🐉🐉🐉 Prepare your body, it's only 138 steps. 🦣🦣🦣 Another recommended spot is the pavilion where the sacred Buddha image, the Rishi Father, and the carved stone elephant statue have been enshrined since ancient times. Whoever comes to make a vow will almost always have their wish granted. Another amazing spot is that in the temple, there is also a small cave called Khao Bo with two white king cobras guarding the entrance of the cave. Inside the cave is an ancient Buddha statue with a Naga guarding and protecting the cave area. It is very beautiful to take pictures. 🦚Wat Khao Bo is located at Village No. 1, Ban Ao Sai, Ko Yo Subdistrict, Mueang Songkhla District, Songkhla Province. The temple area is approximately 7 rai (formerly Wat Sala Bo). #Ancient temple #Songkhla Province #Wat Khao Bo Ko Yo #Songkhla is worth visiting #Visit Ko Yo Songkhla #We love Songkhla #Songkhla people
