Wat Phra Nang Sang

148 Moo 1, Thepkrasattri Road, Thepkrasattri, Thalang

When one part of Phuket's history has contained many stories in Wat Phra Nang Sang. Until becoming one of the tourist attractions Important for the province that does not want everyone to overlook. This temple was built around 1758 and was used as a war camp against the Burmese in 1785. Inside the old ubosot still enshrines the oldest and largest tin Buddha image in the world. The body is called "Phra Nai Pung" or "Phra Sam Kasat", which is located in the stomach of the 3 large cast Buddha images on another level. And in the area near the entrance to the ubosot, we will find the body of Luang Pho Siam (Luang Pho Bai) in a glass cabinet where his corpse is not rotting. It was an astonishing thing. Wat Phra Nang Sang is associated with the legend of the white lady of Nakhon Si Thammarat. that continue to be told that Mrs. Blood Khao, who was the wife of the governor of Nakhon Si Thammarat. was bullied by the Chancellor accusing her of having an affair with a servant which is punishable by death She therefore asked to negotiate a leniency to allow him to have the opportunity to worship the Buddha's relics in Sri Lanka first. and then slowly return to receive that penalty On the way back Phra Nang visited Thalang, Phuket Island and built a temple first. and then travel back to receive the death penalty A miracle happened, that is, instead of red blood, the blood that flowed from him. Turned out to be flowing white. made a big surprise Her Highness has therefore been known as "White Blood Queen" and the temple that Queen Blood White built Later it was called "Wat Phra Nang Sang" until now. Location: 20 kilometers from the city along Thep Krasattri Road. to Thalang district intersection The temple is on the left-hand side by car, about 20 km. from Phuket town along Thep Kasattri Road. to Thalang district intersection located on the north side
