Khao Luang Cave

Khao Luang Mountain has a height of 92 km and is located approximately 5 km from Khao Wang. This cave had been a royal picnic site since the King Rama IV period rests the Dressing Buddha Image that King Rama V graciously built in memory of King Rama III.

Inside Khao Luang CaveIn the afternoon, the cave is beautiful as rays of sunshine illuminate it. From the foot of a hill, there are concrete staircases leading to the cave entrance.

This cave is located approximately five kilometers from khao Wang.

There are some interesting items to be seen in this monastery such as a hude multipurpose pavilion, and beautiful wood carved door panels of the main shrine hall which was designed and constructed by the Lord Abbot who was a famous artisan. The old legend told by Phetchaburi folks for centuries is that the entrance of the cave at this monastery is the entrance of a twilight zone town where inhabitants are only young maidens.
