Wat Phra Maha Chedi Traiphop Trimongkol - Stainless Steel Chedi

#tripแจกโรงแรมฟรี 🙏The sacred things that we have worshipped from the past to the present are usually brick and mortar pagodas. But at the temple in Hat Yai city, there is a pagoda that is not made of brick and mortar, but a stainless steel pagoda. It is considered the first and only one in the world, which is Phra Maha Chedi Traiphum Trimongkol at Wat Phra Maha Chedi Traiphum Trimongkol. But most people like to call it "Stainless Steel Pagoda". It is a combination of Buddhist art, architecture and engineering. It is beautiful and unique. 🛕 Phra Maha Chedi Traiphum Trimongkol is located on Khao Kho Hong. It was built to offer merit to King Rama IX on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of his accession to the throne in 2006. It is also a center for continuing Buddhism, culture and Thai traditions. It is also a place to spread the life story and conduct of the Lord Buddha. 🛕 The stainless steel pagoda has a structure made entirely of stainless steel. It is 32 meters high and 22 meters in diameter. It uses stainless steel round bars of various sizes to create a 60-tiered cone-shaped pagoda. It is shiny silver when exposed to sunlight. It will shine and shine. The top is a circle like a segment and there is an umbrella on the highest peak. 🛕 The bottom of the pagoda has a circular base, made of bricks, plastered with cement, painted in golden yellow, with circular door and window openings. You can go inside and see. Stainless steel is beautifully decorated. 🛕 Each door is a door for each day of birth, totaling 8 openings, and there is a Buddha image for each day of birth inside for you to pay homage to. There are also paintings of the life story of the Buddha and the conduct of the Lord Buddha. 🛕 In the middle of the pagoda base, there is a stainless steel core in the middle. The central pillar contains the relics of the Lord Buddha. There are monk robes placed around it. You can choose to sit in the direction of the opening of your day of birth. Pick up the monk robe and pay homage to the relics of the Lord Buddha. 🛕 Inside the pagoda base, there is a stainless steel spiral staircase leading to the 2nd floor. You can go up to see the pagoda structure, other decorations, and make merit in the stainless steel bowls that are everywhere. 🏰 Below the pagoda, there is a bell tower made of stainless steel, representing the four elements: earth, water, wind, and fire. 🏯 In addition to the pagoda, the temple also has Buddha statues, Buddha footprints, Guan Yin, and other sacred objects for worship. 💥 Phra Mahathat Chedi Traiphum Traimongkol: Punnakan Road, Kohong Subdistrict, Hat Yai District, Songkhla Province 🌐 Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/G7tNSfeRDWfQKreN8 Opening - closing hours: 07.00 - 22.00 hrs. #VisitHatYai #HatYaiSongkhla #HatYai
