Time to recharge!!! Let’s start!!! As usual, we left Bangkok early in the morning. We stopped by “Wat Pa Mok Worawihan” first. There weren’t many people in the morning and parking was convenient. The next place we drove for a while...was the temple that attracted us from Bangkok to “Wat Sangkratai”. It was like being under a spell. The temple was sacred. The area around it wasn’t very wide. Along the walkway, there were local products that the villagers from the temple were selling. “Wat Muang” is a temple with a very spacious area. It seemed to be more crowded than anywhere else, but it had a large parking lot and a great atmosphere. “Phra Tamnak Kham Yat” is an ancient site on a large area. It was beautiful and magical, but there were very few tourists. Before going back, we stopped by “Wat Khun Inthapramun” to pay respect to the large reclining Buddha.

Wat Pa Mok Worawihan is an ancient temple from the Sukhothai period. It was originally two adjacent temples, "Wat Chee Phakhao" and "Wat Talat". However, due to the currents of the water eroding the temple, they had to be combined into one temple. King Sanphet III ordered Phraya Ratchasongkhram to slow down and drag it away from the original river. (King Taisara) came to supervise the slowing down of the Buddha statue to avoid the currents of the riverbank erosion. He moved the Buddha statue to the new temple at Wat Talat, 168 meters from the riverbank. He then ordered Wat Talat and Wat Chee Phakhao to be combined into one temple and named it Wat Pa Mok because there were many jasmine trees in that area. The Royal Chronicles state that before King Naresuan the Great led his army to fight the Crown Prince, he came to gather his troops and pay homage to this reclining Buddha statue.
