Bang Khae Noi Temple, Amphawa Temple

Located on the banks of the Mae Klong River, at the mouth of the Bang Khae Canal in the Kwae Om subdistrict, the temple was built in 1814. Inside are ancient sites and interesting antiquities, including:

This temple was built in 1868 by Khunying Jui (Noi) Wongsaroj and renovated several times until 1997, before falling into disrepair once again. Phrakru Samutnanthakhun (Prae) then commissioned the construction of a new chapel, which can be seen today. Besides the Busabong Thaen Watchara-atana, which houses the relics of His Majesty the Buddha, and the wax figure of Somdet Phra Buddhacarya To Phromrangsi inside the monastery, the current chapel is unique in that its entire floor consists of just seven slabs of Takhian Thong wood. Each slab is 100–110 cm wide, 5 cm thick, and 15 meters long, and they were arranged in a row until the floor was completely filled. The base of the Buddha statue is made of solid Makha Mong wood and measures 2.5 meters wide, 3 meters long, and 10 centimeters thick. The cement base is carved in the shape of a fishing net and was created by a renowned carver from Phetchaburi. It is open to the public daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
