Wat Yai Chai Mongkol Review

Yachao Mengkong Temple is the penultimate temple I saw in the city. It is located in the southeast direction of the outskirts of the ancient city. It's still quite far from here. It takes about half an hour to ride a bicycle. This temple is also called Dajie Temple. You can tell by its name that it has something to do with the war. This is a monastery built during the reign of King Wutong, located in the suburbs of the city and southeast of the railway station in the same direction. One can see its great pagoda from a distance. It is also the tallest Pagoda in the city. King Narishan built the pagoda to celebrate his victory over the invasion of the Burmese army by riding an elephant. He also plans to build a large building to match the pagoda, which is nearby, called Phra cheditor chaimon - gkhon. The temple can be divided into several parts, one is the Great Buddha Pagoda, one is the back garden, another is the front garden, including the Buddha statues in the surrounding corridor, as well as the building. After entering a beautiful front garden, the green area of the front garden is still quite large. There are passages for tourists to walk. The pagodas here are all small pagodas, with small Buddha statues as the main ones. Then, when passing through the corridor, they will go to the Great Buddha Pagoda. There are quite a number of Buddha statues on the side of the corridor. They can be covered with yellow clothes by the 150 baht Buddha statues. The main pagoda is the most visited side, many people will go to see it, because after going up, you can really overlook many parts of the city, and in fact it is not particularly tired. After going up, it is really spectacular. The pagoda is very high. In order to highlight the hard-won victory, you can see that the rulers at that time were blood-based. After going up, there will be a place in the center of the platform where coins can be thrown down. It's good luck to drop coins on the plate below, but it's a pity that it won't work after two attempts. When you get down, you can walk to the back garden. There are also some statues of Buddha. The traffic here is relatively convenient, except for the distance, it is also a popular temple, so there are people everywhere, it is not easy to take pictures, parking is very convenient, the entrance tag is to collect 20 baht tickets, but in fact it is free here. Another interesting feature is that this is the "Tai_" scenic spot, where Wang Baoqiang worships Buddha is the temple.
