Description: |

"Phraya Chaiboon Monument or The Undefeated Hero Monument is
located 4 kilometers from the city hall of Prae province on
highway number 101.
This monument was built for
Mr.Thongyuu Suwanbat or Phraya Chaiboon, the governor of Muang
Prae, served as a government official during 1897 – 1902. In
year 1902, the Shan tribe evacuated to hide in Prae and wanted
to make a rebellion. They seized the police stations and post
office in order to cut off the communication. Phraya Chaiboon
escaped with his family. However, a spy gave out the information
of him. He was seized and forced to sign the contract to offer
the Prae city to the Shan. From his love to the city, he did not
yield resulting the Shan to execute him.
When the
Bangkok city knew about this story, King Rama V ordered to send
an army to conquer the Shan. Then, he ordered to build a
monument for Phraya Chaiboon at the location where he was
executed. The monument was a memory of his virtue for the city
and Phraya Chaiboon was promoted to Phraya Ratcharittanon
Paholpolpakdee.
The Phraya Chaiboon Monument is a
reminder for the Prae people to love their city. This monument
has been a big pride for Prae province. Every year there are
flowers to worship his spirit. Those who have a chance to travel
to Prae province must also take a chance to worship this
monument."
