Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao Rachanusorn (WatPhabatpuphadang) ... (New name "Wat Phutthabat Suttawat")

One of the newest amazing places to visit in Thailand that you should check it out!!! That is Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao Rachanusorn (official name) "วัดเฉลิมพระเกียรติพระจอมเกล้าราชานุสรณ์" or Wat Phabatpuphadang or some people around there called Wat Phrabuddhabat or Wat Doi. The location is in Vichet Nakorn Sub-district, Chaehome District, Lampang province, Thailand or is on Doi Phu Yak. I am a Chaehomer. I have been to the temple several times since there was no temple or buildings yet. This temple started construction in 2004. The construction is still on going since then but most main buildings are finished. If you are interested in visiting the temple, the best way is by air. There are 2 airlines: Bangkok Airways and Nok Air. T rains and/or buses are available as alternative travel.  After landing in Lampang you should take a dark blue shuttle truck from the airport to  Chaehom bus station which is near Seree mall.  From here take a bus...
