Phra
Chedi Klang Nam
The
bell-like Chedi (Pagoda) is over ten m high and is located
in Wat Samut Khongka or Park Nam. Set on an islet at the mouth
of the Rayong River, the ancient structure is only two km
from town center. Built when the main transportation in Rayong
was waterborne, the pagoda was the signal of arrival in the
province. There is an annual celebration held during the twelfth
lunar month or November. The highlight is the exciting boat
races.
