Description: |
|
Situated on a hill covering an area of some 1,320 acres, Wat
Khao Sukim was built in 1966 by devout Buddhists with the
objective to be used as a meditation venue. The expansive temple
compound offers a peaceful haven surrounded by shady orchards.
The temple also houses a large collection of religious items and
valuable antiques donated by the public. On display are wax
sculptures of over twenty Buddhist monks that are highly revered
from Buddhists. In the temples, newly built Ubosot (ceremonial
hall) contains mural painting created by Chakrabhand Posayakrit,
National Thai Artist in Painting. Opening hours: 8am-5pm
Getting there: The temple is near Khao Khitchakut National Park,
20 kilometres from downtown Chanthaburi and can be reached
through three accesses branching off Sukhumvit Road (Highway No.
3):- at Km. 305 (Ban Huai Sathon); at the Ban Noen Sung
intersection; or at Km. 324 (Khao Rai Ya intersection) |
