Wat Phra That Pha Sorn Kaew

This is a very beautiful temple located on top of a high peak. They have created a spectacular temple surrounded by beautiful views of the area. This is the temple with the five Buddhas sitting immediately behind each other in ascending size. It is a striking sight outside. The colors, lighting and furnishing inside the three levels of the temple are really something to see,

We enjoyed our time here and took a few minutes for prayers and blessings. They are building more pagodas and pavilions in the temple area. They look like they will be beautiful once they are completed.

There are parking for free and paid (30฿)
We walked from the parking to the temple. (A lot of people went there on Weekend.
I arrived around 11am so it’s not that hot, making me get those beautiful pictures.
I suggest you to walk down a bit to see the waterfall that they made. 🩵

Great scenery with a beautiful Buddha statue.

It was a bit crowded due to the holiday season. Best to avoid their holiday period to capture nicer photos.

If you are driving, there is a 30bhat entrance fee for the carpark. And you are able to walk toward the Buddhist temple.

Unbelievably gorgeous mountaintop temple. The multicoloured mosaic covering every inch of the complex were so intricate I could barely take it all in. Absolutely worth the trip (and convenient shops/market nearby).

Make sure to wear appropriate clothing since the cloth covers are not available to rent and cost 120 baht each.

The must visit temple in Khao Kho. Can be quite crowded. Parking nearby cost 30B. Need to spend at least 30-60 mins there. Visit the big Buddha temple before heading to the next temple across the road. One can donate to the building of the new structure. The mountain view from there is stunning.

Wonderful place. I recommend to come before 8 a.m., because there are too much people after. After 9a.m. there is big traffic before entering parking. Very beautiful at day and evening light

I really enjoyed my visit here. The only downside for me here was the number of other people who were also visiting this area. Finding a place to park the car was difficult. Trying to navigate the walk from the car to the temple was also difficult due to the amount of traffic on the road and the amount of pedestrians. My suggestion here is to go early to try and avoid the crowds. As this is on the list of must-see temples on the temple trail.
This Temple was truly beautiful, a master piece in the design and execution of this magnificent building. The shear scale of this building left me in ore of the mind who imagined this building and then sore the project through to completion.
This is one place my friends where will have to be patient. Trying to find that perfect spot to take a photo will be difficult, so many people taking selfies these days

This Temple is located in the mountains one hour northeast of Phetchabun in the Khao Kho District. The temple is architecturally a piece of art and is intricately adorned with vibrant colours, intricate carvings, and crafted statues. The beauty of this incredible place just isn't the temple it is surrounded by majestic mountains. The peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking scenery are absolutely mesmerizing.
There's no entrance fee, only a small fee for parking – they rely on donations to maintain this magical place.
Well worth the visit

This temple we found on the road from Chiang Mao to Ubon Ratchathani but I am happy we stopped as it was absolutely beautiful. If you’re in the area give this place a visit. There is also accomodation on the hill near the temple where you can enjoy the view and the temple. I put a video on this on my TikTok TTSWThailand and more details video on my YouTube The Travelling social worker in Thailand will come soon

Amazing temple with many features.
Definitely worth a look.to see more videos go to the square eyed guru on YouTube.

Stunningly beautiful temple. This place is a bit secluded but it's well worth visiting. Amazing views of the natural surroundings. There are a few small restaurants and shops nearby

Beautiful place. Quite touristy. Crowded with lots of people. But the view is magnificent from the top.

Absolutely stunning monestery in the mountains. Slightly tricky location to find, but it was certainly worth the trip.

One of the most beautiful temples I've been to! Many beautiful artwork and gorgeous architecture. Even with a relatively small space on the mountain site, the place is full of fantastic detailed arts. A pair of peacocks is a plus 🦚

One of Thailand's most beautiful temples. The beautiful surroundings and the creativity of the builders make it a unique experience.

One of the best temples to visit at Khao Koh. Very unique.
