Phra That Phanom: A center of faith and valuable art

🌟Wat Phra That Phanom Woramahawihan is a sacred place and an important landmark of Nakhon Phanom Province. The highlight is “Phra That Phanom”, a large pagoda that was newly built in 1979 after the original collapsed due to a storm. The construction is based on the original design, both in terms of shape and artistic details. In addition, the relics of the Buddha’s breastbone (the Buddha’s relics) are enshrined in the new pagoda as before. 💙This pagoda is the center of the minds of the Isan people and Lao people on the opposite side of the Mekong River. People often come to pay homage to ask for blessings for success in life, health, and good fortune, especially those born on Sunday🔴 and in the Year of the Monkey🐒 because Phra That Phanom is considered the pagoda of the day and year of birth. 🧱The temple area has a peaceful, shady atmosphere and is full of the scent of antiquity. For those interested in history, you can visit the museum next to the temple, which preserves the brick fragments and components of the original pagoda. You can also stop by to see it. 🕒 : 05.00 - 21.00 📍: 183 13 Moo 13, Chayangkun Road, That Phanom Subdistrict, That Phanom District, Nakhon Phanom 48110 #tripflytoChina #beautifulphotographplaces #secretlocations #Thaitemples #oldtemples
