This is one of the most important Buddhist sites in Nakhon Ratchasima. Once situated in the heart of a forest, it is now located in the city center, though a small wooded area remains. It lies on the banks of a pond, where one can enjoy a pleasant stroll or dine on the restaurant terrace in front of the architecturally unique temple chedi. Wat Pa Salawan houses the ashes of three monks highly revered in Thailand: Acharn Man, Acharn Tim, and Acharn Sao.
