Wat Saman Rattanaram on the Bang pakong river, Chachoengsao Thailand. ( 6 )
Chachoengsao, Paet Rio, has an old history dating back to the reign of King Borommatrailokkanat in the Ayutthaya period. Most of the people have settled near the Bang Pakong River and along canals. Luangpho Phuttha Sothon and is a centre of faith of the people of Paet Rio. In the past, Chachoengsao was a fourth class city under the Ministry of Defence. During the reign of King Rama I, it was attached to the Ministry of Interior.
Until the reign of King Rama V who changed the administration system, Chachoengsao became a city in the Prachin Buri Circle. In 1916, its status was changed from a city to a province. Chacheongsao is a Khmer word which means a deep canal. The name Paet Rio comes from the story that the city once teemed with giant snake head fish; up to 8 cuts were required on the sides in the making of sun dried fish.
Bang Pakong River originates from the Korat plateau, passes Prachin Buri, Amphoe Bang Nam Priao and Bang Khla of Chachoengsao, and flows out into the Thai Bay at Amphoe Bang Pakong covering a distance of 230 kilometres on it’s journey. The route of the river passes many interesting places such as Khrommakhun Maruphong Siriwats Residence, ancient fortress and a previous City Hall, old rafts and many Wats, and arrives at Wat Pho Bang Khla to the spectacular sights of the local bat community nesting here. Tourists can hire boats at the pier of Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan or in the town. The long tailed boat can accommodate 8 to 10 people and 40 people on the larger boats.
Wat Saman Rattanaram where you can see a giant Reclining Ganesha. This temple is situated on the bank of Bang Pakong river. There are two Ganesha Temples. This one with the pink Ganesha, is some distance north of the city. Wat Saman Rattanaram is located in Bang Kaeo, a sub district of Chachoengsao. The temple is situated near the Bang Pakong Dam, north of Chachoengsao. The temple features a giant reclining image of Ganesha, the Elephant God, said to be the largest of Thailand. The statue of the Hindu deity measures 16 metres high and 22 metres long and made from pink stucco texture in 2009, it took four months to build this.
There is a museum containing sacred objects in the basement of the statue. Around the base are 32 different postures of Ganesh statues enshrined with 5 servants rats in front. Only in Thailand would you find a religious site which combines shrines to Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism all on display in one temple. Near the premises is a market selling a variety of food and products. I have to say it was one of the best and most interesting markets I had visited. The temple was packed with visitors the day I was there due to it being a Sunday and many Thai people had a day off work.

Wat Hong Thong Temple, Song Khlong, Bang Pakong, Chachoengsao,Thailand. ( 10 )
Wat Hong Thong Temple, Song Khlong, Bang Pakong, Chachoengsao.
It is called Wat Hong Thong which means the Golden Swan in Thai. I found this Temple somewhat amusing at first because at first sight it resembled a pier theatre, I expected someone playing the organ while rising from out of the floor. But when there, I found it an unusually serene Temple, with the structure being built over water. At the far end there is also a memorial for Prince Chumphon who is considered a patron saint for fishermen. Not many Temples in Thailand are built this way and it was strange to see but a marvellous concept and well worth a visit to this Temple. If you wish to travel by car, you need to drive down Highway 3 from Paknam or Samut Prakan. You need to go past Bang Pu Seaside Resort and also the fishing town of Klong Dan. A short while after the town, just after you cross the border into Chachoengsao, you will see a sign for a road on the right that leads to Wat Hong Thong.
Having visited this Wat some 6 years ago in 2009, I decided to see how things had changed. Some boardwalks had been added to make walking round safer and better. But the main work going on was the huge building to the right of the old temple structures.
This new addition is very large and must be costing a huge amount of money. The site was still under construction and therefore many cement trucks builders material were being delivered the day I went there. However you can see from the photos its a structure that will greatly add to the attraction for visiting this beautiful and unusual temple set in the lovely province of Chachoengsao.
The day I revisted was 15th March 2015 the same day I visited Wat Saman Rattanaram on the Bang pakong river and Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan temple. It was a busy day trying to get round all the attractions.
However I went by my friends taxi so he did the driving and knew ( this time ) where all the places were. This time I went inside many of the temples buildings I did not see last visit. The Chinese section of this temple was big and attractive, and went up three floors. So a good viewing point was to be had at the top floor.

[4K] ???????? Chachoengsao City Fort Wall, Chachoengsao, Thailand
Chachoengsao Fortifications, Chachoengsao, Thailand
Information from Tourism Authority of Thailand
Located on Maruphong Road, Chachoengsao City Fort Wall was built in 1794 during the reign of King Nangklao, or King Rama III, with Prince Rakronnaret as a construction supervisor, in order to protect the city of Chachoengsao from invasions. After that, in the reign of King Chulalongkorn, or King Rama V, the army used it as the base for suppressing the Ang Yi Rebellion, which consisted of illegal Chinese opium dealers who plundered many areas of the city. In front of the fort wall is a public park where you can get a scenic view of the Bang Pakong River.Constructed of bricks and cements, the fort wall stretches from the east to the west with a width of about one metre, a length of about 200 metres and a height of three metres. Behind the wall is a ditch. Some of the areas around the fort wall were set as a public park. Five cannons of different sizes can also be found along the wall. The length varies from 224 to 325 centimetres and the width at the muzzles from 10 to 18 centimetres. On 5 January 1954, it was registered as a national ancient monument in the Royal Thai Government Gazette Vol. 71 Part III by the Fine Arts Department.
