“for the visitors to the temple is feeding fruits to the huge black carp or the plaa phluang as they are known locally.  ”

Wat Hat Som Paen Ranong is the Buddhist temple that is located pretty close to the Hat Som Paen Canal.

One favorite activity for the visitors to the temple is feeding fruits to the huge black carp or the plaa phluang as they are known locally. 

According to the popular belief, they are thewada, a form of angel and it is out of reverence for them that it is forbidden to catch or eat them. The locals also believe that any harm done to them will bring upon a curse and that person would be afflicted with leprosy. 


  • Holidays throughout the year.
