Wat Khao Rong Phra Chan, Buddhist temple in Huai Pong, Thailand
The temple sits at the summit of a 650-meter mountain, reached by ascending 3,790 steps through natural surroundings and rest pavilions.
The temple complex contains Buddhist artifacts, rare relics, and amulets collected by former abbot Luang Pu Fak before his ordination into monkhood.
The temple houses an ordination hall, a wooden ceremonial hall, and a Buddha statue adorned with flames near the former abbot's final resting place.
The complete journey to the temple summit requires one to three hours of climbing, with water and refreshment stops available during holiday periods.
At the mountain peak, visitors encounter a sacred Buddha footprint, rock-embedded shrines, and local monkeys against a backdrop of regional panoramas.
