1 Day Review at Kanchanaburi Province, Sangaburi

Thailand

At Wangvivekaram Temple (Luang Father Utma Temple)

If you come to Sangaburi and don't stop by, "Wangvivekaram Temple" is really inaccessible. This temple is the center of the hearts of Thais, Mon and Karen in the area. It is a temple that Father Utma, the revered praetor of the Sangaburi people, built with the faith of the three generations, to become a temple full of local faith and warmth.

The outstanding thing is the Buddha Pagoda, which is modeled on India, the color of brass, can be seen from a distance in the sun, so beautiful that the heart pulls softly, and the inside is filled with relics to worship. If you want to experience the atmosphere of peace, try to stroll around the temple, you can hear the bells, the sound of the Mon language, and the smell of incense floating gently.

There is also an "underwater temple," or the former temple of Father Utma, which is submerged under the Cape Dam, which can be seen in a boat during the dry season, and the old church appears out of the water, a sight that is both magical and sad at the same time.

Travel:

From downtown Kanchanaburi, take Route 323 (Kanchanaburi - Sangaburi) and go straight through Tryoke Thong Phra, a distance of about 220 kilometers. It takes about 4-5 hours.

When you arrive in Sangaburi, drive directly next to the Mon Bridge. The temple is not far from the bridge. It is easy to travel. There is parking and community shops around.

Recommended:

If you come early in the morning, you will see a mist floating over a wooden bridge, walk into the temple, and offer alms or face the monk, as if you had filled your heart home. 💛
