Pay homage and ask for blessings from the Buddha's image at Wat Khilek

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck ðŸĄSuwannakiri Temple, originally named Wat Khi Lek or Wat Dong Lek, was built around 2228 during the late reign of King Narai the Great. A wandering monk pitched a tent in the area of ​​the Khi Lek tree, which was abundant. The villagers helped build the temple. 🏠This temple was renovated around 2338 by Somdet Phra Bowonratchao Maha Sura Singhanat, and the name was changed to Wat Suwannakiri. In 2472, King Rama VII traveled to present the first Kathin robe privately.
