This temple is located on Naresuan Road, Tambon Mak
Khaeng, off the main road into Soi San Chao Mae Thapthim and opposite
to a polytechnic school. It is another forest temple in the area of
Amphoe Mueang and has a pleasant shady atmosphere. There is a large
pagoda which contains Lord Buddha’s relics. The pagoda is shaped like
“Thanan,” a utensil used in ancient times to scoop Lord Buddha’s
relics. A portrait of Luang Pu Thira Chitthammo, the present abbot, is
displayed with basic living utensils for Buddhist monks in the
pavilion. On the fourteenth waxing moon day of the twelfth lunar month,
Thot Kathin (robe offering ceremony) and merit making to celebrate the
abbot’s birthday anniversary are held every year.
