Wat Non Kum (Luang Pho To) - Temple Dedicated to Thailands Most Famous Monk - Nakhon Ratchasima
Wat Non Kum (also known as Luang Pho To Phrommarangsi Temple) is a beautiful temple located about 280 km from Central Bangkok and along with Lumtakong Lake, is one of the attraction worth stopping to see in the area.
The assembly hall at Wat Non Kum is a beautiful building roughly in the shape of cross, with a tall golden spire in the center. The golden spire of the temple forms the roof of the tallest room within the temple designed to accommodate a 8 meter tall statue of Somdej Toh.
Somdej Toh was the illegitimate son of King Rama II of Thailand who went on to achieve even greater notoriety as Thailand’s most famous Buddhist monk. Some Thai people believe that Somdej Toh possessed magical powers and that the amulets he blessed during his lifetime (1788 to 1872) have been imbued with his magical powers. Some visitors come to this temple under the belief that worshipping before this giant statue of Somdej Toh will bring them good luck and fortune.
Other attractions at the temple include a lake, very kept gardens, and a series of interesting sculptures.
Wat Non Kum, which is in a sense a temple devoted to Thailand’s most famous monk, has been built largely with funds supplied by Thailand’s most famous actor, Sorapong Chatree. Sorapong Chatree’s film career has spanned five decades with the ageing star still acting as recently as 2018 in a supporting role in the popular TV series ‘The Legend of King Naresuan’. Sorapong, along with other donors, are still making contributions to the temple and building work is ongoing.
