 Description:   Located on a mountain called Phu Kham, or Phu Kham Kham, part of PhuPhan Range, this temple was once the main meditation space for venerated monk Achan Fan Acharo. He stayed here until 1964, and then moved to Wat Pa Udom Somphon as he fell ill.

The temple also houses the ashes of Phra Achan Thet Thetrangsi, a widely respected monk, prompting many Thais to make the long journey to the temple to pay homage to his ashes.
