Attraction Details :

It is an old temple located in Tambon Nakhon Chaisi.  The temple houses a chapel, a vihara, and a principal Buddha image, all of which are very old and assumed, archaeologically, to have been built in the Ayutthaya period.  There is a Phra Phuttha Vithinayok museum, exhibiting historical remains, artefacts, as well as utensils of the late monks: Luang Poo Boon (Phra Phuttha Vithinayok Boon Kanthachoti) and Luang Poo Perm (Phra Phuttha Vithinayok Perm Punyavasano).  Various Buddha images, amulets, and sacred talismans of both late monks are also on display.  On another side of the museum, Thai medicines, herbs, and utensils of craftsmen are displayed.  It is open on Saturdays and Sundays, and national gazette holidays from 09.00-16.00.  For more information, call: 034 331-462, 332-182.
