Footprint of Buddha

Saraburi
was most likely built in the mid-16th century, nowadays
sitting astride the main route to the Northeast. |
|
The
main attraction is Phra Buddha Bat, which houses Thailand's
most important Buddha footprint inside a beautiful mondop
decorated with thousands of glass pieces. The glittering
abode, fine naga staircase leading up to it and the temple
next door attract numerous visitors to pay tribute. Outside
of the town, Phra Buddha Chai is a shadow of Lord Buddha
on a cliff wall within a temple compound. |
|
Muak
Lek Arboretum and nearby Chet Sao Noi Waterfall attract
many local residents for picnics or to eat at small cafes
in natural surroundings. Khao Sam Lan National Park is
the nearest to Bangkok. It is a forest area with some
beautiful waterfalls and is becoming popular for hiking
tours. |
