The 4th Buddha Footprint: Sacredness Above the Lopburi Sky According to Buddhist tradition, there are five significant genuine footprints that the Buddha left for humanity to worship (as mentioned in the Nammadhaya prayer). The footprint at the summit of Khao Wong Phrachan is widely revered as the 4th Footprint (Yonaka Puree), with the following key details:

• Location: Enshrined at the highest point of Khao Wong Phrachan within a beautiful pavilion (Mandapa). Pilgrims must demonstrate great perseverance by climbing 3,790 steps to reach it.

• Physical Characteristics: It is a "genuine" footprint appearing on natural rock, not carved by human hands, according to local belief and legend.

• Nearby Marvels: In addition to the footprint, the summit houses a genuine Buddha's canine tooth relic, which is one of the "9 Miracles" of Wat Khao Wong Phrachan.

• Spiritual Merit: It is believed that worshiping this footprint is akin to being in the presence of the Buddha himself. The arduous journey to the top is seen as a way to purify the mind and accumulate great merit through physical and spiritual effort.
