Within Phanom Sawai Forest Park, City District, Surin

Within Phanom Sawai Forest Park is a water recess in the surrounding low hills formed by weathering which is quite scenic supporting a variety of plants. The park looks at its best during the rainy season. Within the park are 3 major peaks. The first peak is called Chai Peak (Phanom Prawh), 200 metres high where the Buddha image Phra Buddha Surin Monkol is enshrined. The second peak is Ying Peak (Phanom Srai), 210 metres high, where Wat Phanom Sileram is located. The third peak is Khok Peak (Phanom Krol), 150 metres high, where the Buddhist Society of Surin Province has built the ‘Atthamuk’ Pavilion on top as a memorial to celebrate the Rattanakosin 200 year anniversary where a replica Buddha Footprint has been enshrined.
