reviews My opinion: starstarstarstarstar

This temple is located 8 km northwest outside Si Saket. Very generous in statues sometimes surprising. Its mostly known part is the temple in the form of a chariot drawn by two oxen. It also hosts a lying Buddha statue unique in Thailand inspired by a statue seen in India. The main building and its 49 meters high stupa is covered with paintings of tourist attractions of Sisaket province. From the top you have a panoramic view of the surroundings.
This temple worth a visit for the richness and diversity of its statues and its component. It is fairly easy to access because not far from the city.
