Wat Bot Luang Pho Thian

Wat Bot, formerly known as Wat Soi Nang Hong, is located on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River in Village No. 5, Ban Klang, Tambon Ban Klang, Amphoe Mueang Pathum Thani, Pathum Thani Province. It was built in 2164 by the Mon people who migrated from the city of Hongsawadi and named the temple after the village they migrated to. They also built a swan pillar as a symbol of the city of Hongsawadi. The temple received the royal charter of the boundary markers in 2167. There are many important historical sites and artifacts at Wat Bot, including the Phra Ram Man in full costume (Luang Pho Raman in full costume), the Phra Ayan Sith, an antique from the Mon, a four-headed elephant used to decorate the pillar head, which is 150 years old and made of bronze and is in the old church of the temple, and a lead-cast statue of the Ya Le dog that the former abbot received from King Chulalongkorn during his visit to Sam Khok, later changed to Pathum Thani. #Make merit and worship #Visit the temple to make merit #Wat Bot
