Highlights
  • The temple is found on the banks of the Tha Chi River. And even if you’re not religious, the majestic image of Luang Pho To, reaching a height of 23.46 meters (76.7 feet), is enough to draw you in.

  • The exterior looks like a giant dragon made out of fiberglass, looming 135 meters long (442.9 feet) and 35 meters high (114.8 ft.). It is also 18 meters wide (59 ft). The whole structure took two years to build. Inside, visitors go on a journey through 20 rooms, from dynasty to dynasty that spans about 5,000 years, encompassing the whole history of Thailand, up until the time the Thai-Chinese merged and later transitioned to become the people of Thailand.

  • This temple was built during the Rattanakosin Period, The image hall (wihan) houses a special reclining Buddha Image carved from Granite about 2 meters long. Interestingly, while most reclining Buddha image lay on one side, the Buddha image here lies supine (in Thai, “Non”) leanding the temple it’s name.

  • • Wat Phra Loi is a revered Buddhist temple in Suphanburi because it houses a Buddha image, Phra Phutthanawaramonghjorn, that legend has it floated down the Tha Chin River and washed ashore here. So a temple was built to honour and house it.
Phra Phutthanawatmongkhon is depicted seated under a Naga, a mythic serpent, whose hood covers and protects the Buddha.
There is a large pond in front of the temple where you can feed thousands of carp that live there.

Additional Information

If you find yourself in Bangkok and crave an off-the-beaten-path Thai experience, consider a visit to the untouched province of Suphanburi, located just 102 KM outside the city. This place holds testimonies of Thailand’s Bronze Age and Stone Age, presenting an opportunity to travel back in history up to 3,800 years ago.

Located at a short commute of an hour from Bangkok, Suphanburi is a historical site enriched with its prominence in the wars of Ayutthaya era. A stroll through its roads will transport you to the pages of a historical narrative, tracing back nearly 3,800 years.

This region boasts of agrarian products, expansive flat terrains, and still retains its rustic charm with an array of small-scale industries and untouched waterfalls, lakes, forests, and indigenous settlements. In recent times, it has started curating tourist attractions like parks and sanctuaries to attract more visitors to Central Thailand.

I like Thailand more! - First of all, I did explore only the places I like. But after I've been in this trip I think Thailand has many more place to go :) Next time I will visit Supanburee again with my family.

I fall in love with Suphanburi! - This is my first time to Suphanburi! I heard about some places in this province like Buengchavak, Buffalo village. But I never try local experience here, once I visit thai porcelain factory, I really amazed by the way they paint & decorate it. It's meticulous painting on earth ware piece. Also the factory owner & his team are excellent and present their traditional art craft legacy quite well. Overall experience is superb!

Beyond great experience! - We spent a couple weeks in Thai. We've been to Pattaya, Hua-Hin and so on. Then I started seeking some new destinations to explore. Suphanburi wasn't listed as priority but after went through the itinerary we thought "it might be great. Then I booked and I gained "what I seek for" The local food is tasty and good while the activity / workshop impressed me. Well we got very unique but lovely gift home; Hua To inhaler. Worth to your time to try!
