 This is a very old monastery located on the west
side of the Suphan River. It is generally called by
the villagers as "Wat Pa". The Wiharn houses a
Buddha image in the attitude of leading a jungle
life. named "Luang Pho To".

The Buddha image, highly revered by the people,
was formerly in the attitude of giving the first
reaching sermon but was changed to be in the
present attitude when it was renovated. Every
year there are two worshipping fairs falling on
the 5th and the 9th waxing moon days of April
and November.
