“Khao Na Nai Luang Dharma Park features the 9-spired Phutthawadee Archway, the floating Phra Phuttha Silawadi Pagoda, morning sea of mist, and a serene atmosphere perfect for meditation.”

Khao Na Nai Luang Dharma Park is a peaceful and serene temple surrounded by beautiful mountains, ideal for meditation and Vipassana retreats. The Floating Phra Phuttha Silawadi Pagoda, constructed with laterite from Kamphaeng Phet, is situated atop a limestone mountain nearly 300 meters high. It houses the Buddha's relics and serves as a center of faith for Buddhists. People visit to pay their respects and seek blessings for themselves and their families.

Besides its sacredness, the art and architecture within Khao Na Nai Luang Dharma Park include the 9-spired ancient archway named "Phutthawadee." Especially in the morning, when sunlight shines through the archway, it creates a beautiful and impressive scene. Visitors can also hike to the mountaintop to witness the southern sea of mist and visit the replica of the Buddha's footprint, creating a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere filled with faith.
