Wat Tham Rong is a private Mahayana Buddhist temple located on Tham Rong Mountain in the sub-district of Ban Lat County, Phetchaburi Province. A notable feature is the chain used to bind the ankles of the statue of Luang Pho Dam. Wat Tham Rong was originally built in 1782 and received its royal charter in 1812. The current ordination hall dates from 1961.

Tham Rong is a relatively small cave in a commune near the sub-district commune of Tham Rong.

Access to Tham Rong is easy; there's no need to climb up or down a hill. The cave entrance is flat and shaded by trees.

The mountain where Wat Tham Rong temple is located is steeped in stories and legends from the past. Suton recounts a journey into the past, some 1000 to 1300 years ago. It is believed that this area was once a dense forest with three mountains. Wat Tham Rong boasts a beautiful stucco-decorated ordination hall – a masterpiece of Phetchaburi art. Within Tham Rong is Luang Pho Dam, an ancient Buddha statue revered by the community. There is also a learning center dedicated to the wisdom of the palm, Uncle Thanom's Palm Garden. The palm trees are planted in rows, like in an orchard – a conscious effort to preserve the palm, a symbol of Phetchaburi that is becoming increasingly rare. Ban Yiton makes sweets from palm sugar and boils down palm sugar, thus continuing the Phetchaburi tradition of the palm. There is also a large traditional Thai house where a group of elderly people weave palm leaves into various shapes. In the bamboo weaving village, the art of bamboo weaving into various household items is demonstrated. Wat Muang Ngam temple and the antiquities museum display tools and artifacts that reflect the community's former way of life. Ban Rong Township has been recognized for improving road safety and has incorporated this into a bicycle tour, allowing visitors to experience the township's atmosphere and learn about local knowledge. Tourists interested in observing palm climbing and palm sugar production are also welcome. Learn how to prepare dishes and desserts using palm fruits and visit a guava grove featuring the Phet Suphan and Thapthim Chan varieties. Transportation and a guided tour are included.
