Wang Matchakhong Kutwai Fish Park, Maha Sarakham Province
Wang Matcha Park, Khong Kut Wai
Matcha Park is located in Ban Khong Kut Wai, Village No. 7, Koeng Subdistrict, Mueang District, Maha Sarakham Province, 6 kilometers from the Maha Sarakham Municipality along the Maha Sarakham-Mukdahan route. The park is located in Kut Wai. The word Kut means a waterway where the river has changed its course for a long time. In the past, there were rattan trees growing around the area of Kut Wai. The garden on the mound in the middle of the Kut had cogongrass and vetiver grass growing abundantly at the head of the bend in the water. Phra Khru Phithak Kosumphisai (Ya Khru Mong), the abbot of Wat Pho Si, established a hermitage to be a grass garden for thatching religious buildings in ancient times. Currently, the villagers have established this area as a temple named Phithak Samakkhi Pho Si 2.
In 1994, the Mobile Agricultural Service Center and the Royal Irrigation Department The original width of the river bend was dredged, approximately 120 meters wide, 10 meters deep from the ground, and a horseshoe-shaped curve for approximately 800 meters. It has a water capacity of approximately 96,000 cubic meters. On the west side, there is a natural waterway that overflows into the river around Kut. On the north side, there is a village called Khong Kut Wai. The population is Thai-Lao and Thai-Korat. In 1994, around October, there was a flood on both sides of the Chi River, overflowing into Khong Kut Wai and flowing into the Mun River, Mekong River, respectively. The school of Pla Pheo is a type of catfish. Some people in the Northeast call it Pla Suai. There are also Pla Wang. Pla Pheo lives in the Mekong River and the mouths of its tributaries, such as the mouth of the Mun River. They gather in schools and swim upstream, which is an unprecedented phenomenon. This may be because Kaeng Tana, which is a rapid and rocky crevice where they used to live, was blasted to build the Pak Mun Dam. These fish have nowhere to live, so they panic and swim upstream together with the fish that were raised in the flooded ponds, such as the silver barb, snakehead fish, and Nile tilapia. In the Khong Kut Wai River, there are many, especially grilled fish, not more than other types, and they are large fish. Currently, the body is about 2 cubits long. They like to swim upstream to eat food from people who come to visit. When all the different types of fish are combined, there are about hundreds of thousands of them. The villagers saw this as a good opportunity, so they joined together to block the waterway from flowing into the Chi River. Later, the government strengthened the embankment to be 30 meters long and 8 meters wide, and jointly named it the Fish Park. The park uses culture to lead development. Everyone in the village works together with the Buddhist temple as the center.
