[2025 Kra Buri Attraction] Travel Guide for Wat Suwan Khiri (Updated Jun)

Seeing the pagoda, you can probably guess that the original is from the Shwedagon Pagoda in Burma. We may have seen replicas from other places, but this Suwannakiri Temple is special because it is near the Burmese border, just across the Kra Buri River. Many Burmese Buddhists come to make merit at this temple. The pagoda is also on top of a hill. You can drive up to it, the road is not steep. In addition to seeing the beautiful gold color from the top, you can also go up to the Heavenly Building, which is a tower with a clearer view of nature. If anyone is passing through Ranong-Chumphon, don't forget to stop by.

The Series, Bod Bea, takes friends to visit the temple again. This time, we will take you to visit a temple called "Wat Suwannakiri" or Wat Pak Chan in Ranong Province. This temple enshrines the Buddha Suwanna Chedi, or what Thais know as "Shwedagon Pagoda of Ranong Province. For Wat Suwannakiri, which has a Shwedagon Pagoda located on Phetkasem Road, the entrance is near Pak Chan Market and Pak Chan Police Station, Pak Chan Subdistrict. For anyone passing through Ranong and Chumphon Provinces, I highly recommend it because it is one of the most beautiful temples in Ranong Province. There is also Phra Maha Muni, which is Burmese art. It is very beautiful. Another place for people to come and ask for blessings is the pair of Takian trees, which spread their branches and provide shade to the temple. Especially friends who like to take risks may like it. 🤭🤭 . For me, I think this temple is very beautiful and still needs a lot of restoration. Therefore, I would like my friends to join in making merit together. #TravelRanong #RanongCityOfEightRainAndFourSuns #Ranong #RanongCityMustNotBeMissed #RanongCityOfEightRainAndFourSuns #WatSuwannakiri #WatPakChan #VisitTemples #Travel #TravelAroundThailand #BeautifulTemples #BodBohTheSeries #BodBohTheSeries #Krabi #GoodThingsOfRanong #TravelInTheRainySeason #BeautifulTemples #SecondaryCitiesWorthVisiting
