Description: |

Srakaew is the 74th province of Thailand on 1st December 1993.
The city shrine was built in order as the center of the people
in Srakaew province. It is located in Suan Kanchanapiset, Tambol
Ta Kasem, Amphur Muang Srakaew. The King anointed this pillar on
12th September 1996.
The Shrine of City Pillar was built
according to the standard of the Fine Arts Department. It was
built with 5 pagodas with a pavement that connects within each
other. The biggest pagoda is 6.60 meters wide and 19.10 meters
high and the other four were built in the 4 directions of the
main one. The city pillar of Srakaew is inside the main pagoda.
The pillar was built from pink and white shower tree according
to the ancient culture. The perimeter of the pink and white
shower tree is 120 inches and 229 inches high. Then on 25th
September 1996, the ceremony was performed in order to invite
the city pillar to the shrine.
The tourists usually come
here to worship the shrine for auspiciousness. The tourists can
travel here by taking the highway 33 from the city to Amphur
Wattananakorn for around 4 kilometers. Then, it is noticeable
that on the right side is the Kanchanapisek Park, Tambol Taa
Kasem, which is where the City Pillar is located.
The
legend said that this City Pillar occurred by the unity of the
villagers in order to show loyalty to the King and also as the
center of the Srakaew people. |
