A Diamond-Studded Image and Museum of Renowned MonksVenue : Wat Krathum Sueapla, Prawet District
Wat Krathum Sueapla was built in 1772. Artifacts at the temple include the traditional Thai meeting pavilion with the gable in angelic motifs and a century-old wooden bell.
The new meeting pavilion hiuses Luangpho Phet, a replica of Phra Phuttha Chinnarat in Sukhothai style, whose wrap is studded with thousands of Russian diamonds. Another pavilion houses a collection of wax-figures of more than 10 renowned monks such as Luangpu Thuat, Somdet Phra Phutthachan (To Phromrangsi), Luangpu Suk, and Luangpu Pan. All of these images are life-like. The museum is open daily to visitors.
