Wat Phra That Chedi Chum Worawihan

Wat Phra That Chedi Chum Worawihan is an important religious site of Sakon Nakhon Province since ancient times. The top of the umbrella above the Phra That Chedi Chum is made of pure gold weighing 247 baht. The current Phra That is in the Lan Xang style and was built to cover the original Phra That, which was in the Khmer style. Inside, there are footprints of four Buddhas, which are Phra Kakusanda, Phra Konakam, Phra Kassapa, and Phra Kodom or Phra Sri Ariyamettrai (the Supreme Buddha whom Buddhists worship and pay homage to today). Wat Phra That Chedi Chum is considered a sacred land. As the saying goes, “Is there ever a time when you will receive more merit than coming to worship the Phra That built to cover the footprints of four Buddhas?” It is believed that the merit of worshipping Phra That Chedi Chum will bring the highest auspiciousness to yourself and your family, leading to prosperity and freedom from danger. This includes worshipping “Luang Pho Phra Ong Saen”, which is enshrined in the chapel near Phra That Chedi Chum, which is a Buddha image in the Mara-Vijaya attitude. Chiang Saen Art is a Buddha image that is a symbol of Sakon Nakhon people. It is believed that it will bless them with fortune, tens of thousands of baht, and wealth. Every day, many people come to pay homage to Phra That Chedi Chum and Luang Pho Phra Saen. There is an annual event starting from the 9th waxing moon to the 15th waxing moon of the 2nd lunar month of every year (determined by the lunar calendar).
