The 2nd floor is a monk meeting hall. The walls are decorated with pictures of the life of the Buddha. The 3rd floor is the ordination hall and enshrines the statues of Isan gurus in the past, which are marble sculptures and statues of 101 virtuous monks. The 4th floor is a viewing floor. View of the green mountain scenery, the 5th floor is the museum of Luang Pu Sri Maha Wiro (in the process of collecting), the 6th floor is the highest floor, containing the relics of the Lord Buddha.

People from all directions can come to pay homage for good luck at the same time.

Score - Full 10 points because I like this place. The chedi of the Northeastern city, an old chedi

The grand pagoda of Roi Et
The Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol, also known as "The Great, Victorious, and Auspicious Pagoda," is Thailand's largest chedi (pagoda). It's on the grounds of Wat Pha Namthip Thep Prasit Vararam, a temple complex in Roi Et province, rural Thailand. This massive chedi is 101 meters long, 101 meters wide, and 101 meters high, and it was constructed on a plot of 101 Rai (about 40 acres). The number 101 is derived from the name of the province in which it is located, Roi Et, which translates to 101 in Thai. Because relics of the Buddha are kept in the top of the pagoda, the chedi, also known as Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkhon, is highly regarded in Roi Et province.

Visit Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol in Roi Et Province.
Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol is located in Phanamyoi Subdistrict, Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province.
The chedi is large and exquisitely beautiful with intricate Buddhist art.
The author has had the opportunity to visit and pay respects to this chedi more than ten times, and each time, they try to reach the highest level.
This is because the 'topmost level houses the Buddha's relics.' However, those who wish to reach the highest level must be in good health and not afraid of heights, as the stairs are narrow and quite steep (see picture 8).
Even if you can't reach the highest level, it's okay because each level has Buddha statues for worship. The interior of the chedi is peaceful and cool, making it a perfect place for prayer and merit-making.
If you haven't been here yet, give it a try. I guarantee that once you visit for the first time, there will definitely be a second and third visit.
