Wat Bang Khae Noi is located in Tambon Khwae Om by
the Mae Klong River. This temple was built by Khunying Chui (Noi)
Wongsarot in 1868. Initially, the Ubosot (ordination hall) was built on
the bamboo raft tied to a Bodhi tree on the river bank. At present, the
temple is well restored. The most interesting thing is the ordination
hall’s inside walls which are woodcarvings depicting the Lord Buddha’s
history, birth, enlightenment, and nirvana, as well as stories of the
Lord Buddha’s Ten Incarnations or Jatakas. The beautiful and explicit
design was made by craftsmen from Phetchaburi province where
woodcarving is famous. For more information, call Tel. 0 3476 1222.
