Wat Phu Thok is located in Ban Kham Kaen, Na Saeng Subdistrict, Si Wilai District, Bueng Kan Province. It is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For those who want to visit Wat Phu Thok, you must check the schedule carefully because it will be closed to tourists from April 10 to 16 of every year. Let me tell you that it takes a lot of effort to get to the top. For those who want to overcome their fear of heights, I recommend coming here because you will have to fight with your fear in front of you very hard. It is another unseen and very challenging tourist attraction that you must try at least once in your life. The highlight of Wat Phu Thok is the 6th floor, which is the most beautiful viewpoint. The entire walkway is a protruding cliff. Sometimes you have to walk slightly out. I must say that it is very scary and your legs will definitely shake. Each cliff has a different name, such as Pha Thep Nimit, Pha Thep Sathit, Pha Hua Chang. And during the winter, Phu Thok will be surrounded by a sea of ​​fog, making it feel like you are in heaven. From the 6th floor to the 7th floor, there is a wooden bridge that circles the mountain for 400 meters on the edge of the cliff. Let me tell you that this point Both high and steep, very scary. There is an interesting thing at the entrance to the Naga city, which is located behind the Buddha statue in the Naga pose. There will be white marks scraped against the limestone. The villagers believe that these are scratches caused by the Naga's belly touching the stone.

The highlight of the temple is the wooden bridge and wooden stairs built around the mountain with 7 floors, like the way up to the 7th heaven. It used only human labor to build it. With the faith and determination of the people at that time, it took 5 years to complete. Walking up to worship the chedi and Buddha statues on top, you will pass through a wooden bridge and stairs along the cliff, through a beautiful cave, with strangely beautiful layers of rocks, and a view of the lush forest. It is recommended to go during cool weather because it takes 2 hours to walk there and back. We did not reach the 7th floor because there was no path to continue. We walked up by ourselves. If we went deeper, we were afraid of getting lost in the forest and encountering wild animals. There was no guide. The people in the area said that the top of the 7th floor is a mountain peak. Try visiting it once.

One of the places I really recommend — “Phu Tok Temple” or its full name is Wat Chetiyakiriwihan in Bueng Kan. Let me tell you, it’s not ordinary! The way up is a wooden bridge that circles the mountain on 7 levels, like walking up to heaven in Thai style. Your legs may be a little shaky, but the view from the top is so beautiful that you’ll forget how tired you are. You can see rice fields, forests, and mountains in 360 degrees. It’s perfect for both those who like to chill and those who like to make merit in one trip. But let me tell you, it’s not just about taking pictures. This place is quiet and peaceful, and it has a sense of Dharma in itself. You can really feel your mind become calmer (even though you’re covered in sweat). A few suggestions: • Bring good shoes. Some parts of the way up are very steep. • Bring drinking water. • If you’re afraid of heights… brace yourself, but if you make it up, you’ll be so proud. #Phu Tok #GetDiscountsWithoutFate #BuengKan

Beautiful, worth visiting, pray to the sacred things.

Phu Thok, Bueng Kan Province is a place worth visiting for its beautiful scenery on the mountain range. You have to try to walk up there. You have to be patient and have a fairly strong body. Try to walk all the way to the top. Along the way, there will be a high section that protrudes from the cliff, making it look scary. But it challenges your ability and faith. There are huts for monks or people who want to meditate on top. It is suitable for people who want to find peace, but it should be in the evening. There will be many tourists walking up to pay homage to the sacred objects on top. I am impressed that I came. I am tired, but it is worth it.
