| Though it belongs to the Mon culture, Wat Wang Wiwekaram is of importance to Thai pilgrims and their spiritual life. Many Thais travel to Sangkhlaburi to visit the temple. |
| The temple itself features beautiful wood carvings and an ancient white marble Buddha statue that was once carried up from Burma. |
| Next to the golden stupa of Wat Wang Wiwekaram is a market where local Mon merchants sell souvenirs, wooden handicraft, cloth, blankets, (fake..) jewellery and many other things to visitors. The market is open daily from around 0830 to 1700. |
