CHACHOENGSAO

This scenic province is famous for its
mangoes and farm produce, but the main
attraction is Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan, housing Phra Buddha Sothon, one of the most revered Buddha images in Thailand. The 1.98-metre-high image has a mysterious past. Legend says it was one of three images seen floating down the Bang Pakong River, which was retrieved by famous monk Luang Pho Sothon and enshrined in this temple, which is frequently crowded with people paying homage.

Bang Pakong River is a scenic spot for boat rides. An ancient fortress still displaying old cannons is a good view point. Som Thawee meditation centre, 20 kilometres north of the town, offers meditation classes in both English and German.
