This Temple was built in the 20th century. The main architecture is the much revered Phrathat Chedi Phutthatham Banlue on top of Khao Lan Hill. The workmanship of all buildings and other temple features is of a very high standard. Its full name Wat Rat Upatam means ‘the temple that has been supported by locals’ and it has an interesting story attached to it.
Lung Por Chai had always been a monk on a pilgrimage but decided to settle as well as develop this temple. Almost 30 years ago.
The foundation stone for the construction of the round, bell-shaped chedi was laid by Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn on 03 October 1990. There is also a huge statue of Bodhisattva Kuan Yin in the gesture of expressing compassion.
