Phra Phutthabat Khao Noi
Khao Phra Phutthabat Noi Cliffs
The steep cliffs at Wat Khao Phra Phutthabat Noi provide an exciting opportunity for rock climbing enthusiasts, especially beginners. For those who prefer a less challenging activity, rappelling down the cliffs offers a chance to enjoy the panoramic view of the Pasak River plains.
Khao Phra Phutthabat Noi features rugged limestone peaks and intricate mountainous terrain. This unique geography supports a variety of wildlife, including the rare insect-eating bird, the Long-tailed Shrike, and the Himalayan tahr, locally known as "Phra In's Horse," which inhabits the Three Hills Cave.
The temple grounds also house a revered relic: a miniature Buddha footprint, measuring about 1.5 by 3 feet. It is believed to be an ancient sacred imprint, left by the Buddha himself using mental concentration to soften the stone. Devotees can make offerings to this sacred footprint, which is said to bestow blessings and good fortune, potentially leading to celestial rebirth. The area around the footprint is always moist, adding to its spiritual significance.
