Wat Pho Chai

Luang Pho Phra Sai at Ubosod Wat Pho Chai

Luang Pho Phra Sai, Wat Pho Chai.
The major Buddha Image of the province, Luang Pho Phra Sai, is enshrined at Wat Pho Chai within town limit. Comparatively small, with only a spread of about one meter across the knees, it is thought to have been cast in Lan Chang. The annual Soeng Bung Fai, or Rocket Festival, which is held on the day of the Full Moon in April, is celebrated at this temple.
