Nakhon Pathom - Wat Klang Bang Kaew

Wat Klang Bang Kaew, an old temple located in Tambon Nakhon Chaisi, houses a chapel, a vihara, and a principal Buddha image, all of which are very old and archaeologically assumed to have been built in the Ayutthaya period.

In the temple, there is Phra Phuttha Vithinayok museum whose exhibition ranges from historical remains, artefacts, to utensils of the late monks: Luang Poo Boon (Phra Phuttha Vithinayok Boon Kanthachoti) and Luang Poo Perm (Phra Phuttha Vithinayok Perm Punyavasano). Their Buddha images, amulets, and sacred talismans are also on display. On another side of the museum, it exhibits Thai medicines, herbs, and utensils of craftsmen.
