Khao Chi Chan

Khao Chi Chan is a large stone Buddha carved into a rock face in Chachoengsao Province, Thailand. The figure sits in meditation pose, its gentle expression carved directly into the cliff.

The monument was created in the 1980s and has since become an important religious site in the region. It was carved through the dedication of local devotees who wanted to create this expression of faith in stone.

The rock site is located within a nature preserve and is accessible on foot, making it suitable for a half-day visit. Respectful clothing is recommended as it is a sacred location.

The Buddha underwent extensive restoration work with careful attention to every detail to preserve its original quality. Visitors often remark that the fine facial features remain remarkably lifelike despite the monument's large scale.
