Wat Huay Mongkol
(Hua Hin)
This Buddhist temple is home to the world’s largest statue of Luang Phor Thuad, a legendary southern Thai monk revered for his enlightenment and ability to perform miracles.
Many believe that the amulets created in his image guarantee safety in times of distress.
The statue, set within a park-like setting that attracts many visitors each weekend, was commissioned by HM Queen Sirikit and is the first thing you see when approaching Hua Hin from Highway 4 (heading to Prachuab Kirikhand).
Sitting in the meditation pose, it looms overhead once you arrive on the worship ground.
