Tourist attractions : Wat Sakhla ( วัดสาขลา ) Na Kluea Subdistrict | Samut Prakan

Wat Sakhla ( วัดสาขลา ) is another ancient temple | Samut Prakan

Wat Sakhla is another ancient temple in Samut Prakan. It is the spiritual center of the people of Na Kluea Subdistrict, Phra Samut Chedi District. The highlight of Wat Sakhla is the leaning prang, an ancient prang situated on the bank of a canal. However, due to flooding, the prang tilted 15 degrees. Since then, with no further damage, it has remained unrepaired, becoming a symbol of the Ban Sakhla community.
Don't-miss Highlights
The leaning prang: This is an important symbol and a prominent ancient site of the temple. The prang tilted noticeably due to subsidence of the canal bank.
Luang Pho To: This sacred Buddha image, over 230 years old, is a spiritual center and revered by locals and visitors. Crawling under the chapel: A popular activity for merit-making and auspiciousness, people crawl under the chapel to pay homage to the ancient artifacts excavated beneath its foundation. Phra Sangkachai: This exquisitely beautiful statue. Prominently enshrined in the center of the temple grounds, these twin Buddha images face each other: another interesting and unique feature.
Riverside Community Lifestyle: The temple's surroundings retain the simple lifestyle of riverside villagers and are also a popular spot for making merit by releasing fish.
Wat Sakhla is a comprehensive destination for making merit, praying, making merit, visiting historical sites, and experiencing the riverside community's lifestyle.
