Description: |
|
Wat Pho Chai Semaram or Wat Ban Kom is an old temple with a huge
collection of old boundary stones of gigantic sizes. The
boundary stones found in Fa Daet Song Yang are different from
those discovered in other regions, as they were usually carved
telling Jataka stories and the life of the Lord Buddha. Some of
these boundaries stones are kept at the same place where they
were discovered and others are kept and displayed at Khon Khaen
National Museum.
The temple is located opposite to the
entrance of Muenag Fa Daet Song Yang in Nong Paen sub-district,
Kamalasai district, Kalasin district, 7km west from Kamalasai
town.
These boundary stones found here are different from
those discovered in other regions. The famous boundary stone
“Phimpha Philap”, which is now kept in Khon Kaen National
Museum, was carved telling the stories and the life of the Lord
Buddha when coming back from Kabilapat with his father and his
son and Yasodhara washed
the feet of Lord Buddha with her hair.
The interesting
features in the temple are the boundary stones from Dhavaravati
period which form the temple wall and some of them are kept in
the temple.
