Description

The extensive Wang Wiwekaram Temple, diocese of the revered Abbot 'Luang Phor Uttama' is 9 Km from Sangkhlaburi. The temple edges the Khao Laem reservoir. The complex is constructed in a typical Mon architectural style. The 'Luang Phor Uttama' pagoda has been modeled from the one in Bodhgaya - India. 400 Mon people devoted labour time for land preparation and fabrication of 260.000 bricks. The pagoda was built in reinforced concrete with a square basement 42 m long on each side and 59 m high. Two relics of the Buddha's right thumb-bone with the size of a rice-grain, transparent white and shiny yellow, contained in 3 layer boxes, brought from Sri Lanka, were enshrined by the Crown Prince in 1989 AD. A 400 Baht (1 Baht = 15.16 gram) golden umbrella was lifted to the top of the pagoda.
