Wat Krok Krak

Wat Krok Krak is an ancient temple situated along the Tha Chin River in Samut Sakhon, renowned for its unique landmark: “Luang Phor Pu,” a laterite Buddha image in the subduing Mara posture, distinctively adorned with black sunglasses. This tradition stems from local beliefs that prayer can heal eye ailments. The temple complex boasts a magnificent golden teakwood ordination hall and a serene, shaded riverside ambiance, consistently attracting devotees seeking blessings and spiritual merit. Beyond its religious significance, the temple serves as the spiritual heart of the local fishing community and a noteworthy cultural destination, reflecting the deep faith the people of Mahachai have for their revered Buddha image.
