Wat Rai Khing

Wat Rai Khing, a civilian monastery built in 1791 and is located in Tambon Rai Khing, only 32 kilometers from Bangkok.
It was named after the district by Somdej Phra Phuttha Chan (Pook).
When the construction was completed, the Buddha image was brought from Wat Sala Poon and enshrined here, later the locals named the image "Luang Pho Wat Rai Khing".
According to legend, this Buddha image was found floating in the river, so the townspeople took it up and enshrined the image at Wat Sala Poon.
