Villagers renovating long-abandoned temple | Bangkok Post: news


This ruined old temple in tambon Nong Kradon is being renovated for use as a meditation centre by people from nearby Ban Nasan. The temple and grounds occupy about 3 rai of land surrounded by ricefields. Villagers said the temple was once the religious centre of a big community. Members of the temple community moved away and set up new villages closer to main roads and public utilities, leaving the temple to decay and be overgrown by shubbery. The people of Ban Nasan first organised a tod pa pa ceremony to raise funds.
