The 4-Story Teakwood Pavilion
This building is a rare masterpiece of wooden architecture, blending traditional Thai styles with contemporary design. The structure consists of four levels, each serving a distinct purpose:
-
1st Floor: A multi-purpose open basement (Tai-tun) for relaxation and community activities.
-
2nd Floor: The assembly hall or dining area for monks.
-
3rd Floor: The main chapel or space enshrining significant Buddha images.
-
4th Floor: The highest level, enshrining a replica of the Buddha's footprint, located closest to the limestone cliff.
The highlight is the extensive use of teak, mahogany, and reclaimed timber from across the country, meticulously crafted to resemble a fairytale wooden manor nestled among lush greenery and dramatic rock formations.
