Korat - Wat Ban Rai - LP Koon

This is one of the most famous temples in the Province as it is the residence of the revered monk Luang Pho Koon Parisuttho. Many worshippers from all over the country come pay their respect daily. The temple is located in Tambon Kut Phiman, about 60 kilometers from the city.


Location
To reach the monastery, take Mitraparp Highway to the 237-km marker, turn right past Kham Thale So and Nong Suang to Dan Khun Thot. From Dan Khun Thot Hospital use Highway No. 2217 and drive for 11 kilometers.

Address:  Tambon Kut Phiman, Amphoe Dan Khun Thot, Nakhon Ratchasima

Recommendation ***** (must see!)

Devotees waiting to see LP Koon
I didn't stay long as I ddin't quite like the idea of LP Koon still having to meet
some high profile devotees thru the arrangements of his luksits.  Just hope he
have more privacy as well as more time to rest,


LP Koon had gone to the peace. He passed away on 16 May 2015 at the age of 92 years old
