Chedi Phutthakhaya

The pagoda is very beautiful, Mon art

The fourth stop of the Taisi Tour we came to the Bodhi Gaye Pagoda, which is located in the western Thai town of North Bishuang Karaburi, a model of India's Buddha enlightenment pagoda, but smaller than the Indian pagoda. Built in 1978 by Longpo Udama, the Bodhi Gaye Pagoda aims to emulate the Indian Buddha's tower of enlightenment. It becomes the Buddhist center of the town of Shuangkaraburi, where many ethnic minorities are united and ethnically diverse. Under the influence of Longpowudama, believers have organized preparations for construction, people pick up firewood high, rich believers donate, donate gold or donate construction materials, and the believers who have no money have helped to build, adding a lot of confidence to Longpowudama. After four years of construction, the pagoda was completed in 1982. The pagoda of Bodhi Gaye is smaller than the Buddha's enlightenment tower in India. There are two Mon Art-style Phoenix statues in front of the entrance to the pagoda, which is the gatekeeper of the temple. The foundation is a square, 42 meters wide and 59 meters high. The area around the pagoda is a walkway-like balcony, you can walk around the aisle, surrounded by many Buddha statues, large and small. There are many recessed squares on the surface of the pagoda, and many Buddha statues are served in the square. The distance looks like chess. At the top of the pagoda, the Sheriko from Longpoudama, Sri Lanka. Walking in the temple, looking up at the pagoda, the pagoda shining brightly above the town of Shuangkarabuli, as if the time stopped at that moment, but time still took away the wind, took away the sun, took away the master of Longpo Udama, took away everything around people, The pagoda seems to tell people to cherish their eyes and not leave any regrets for life. ＃ Thailand Tourism ＃ Thailand Travel #Free Travel
