Description: |
|
Luang Pho Sian Nakhon is the highly revered Buddha statue of
townspeople, stands at Bunnak Rakkhitaram Temple (Wat Tam) in
Muang district. It is believed to have been built in Sukhothai
period. During an excavation at a whisky brewery, located near
Wat Nang Hong, in the year 1952, the head of a Buddha image was
found. The head was kept at a school then known as Nayok
Phitthaya School (at present no longer exists), later it was
enshrined at Wat Bunnak Rakkitaram. In 1968, the rest of the
parts of the Buddha image other than the Buddha’s head were
recreated and a new chapel was constructed to house the new
complete Buddha image. Since then, the Buddha image came to be
known as "Luang Pho Sian Nakhon". |
