#Let'sTalkAboutTravel Let's explore Sakon Nakhon. Of course, a visit to Sakon Nakhon is a must-do for those seeking blessings and making offerings. We recommend visiting Phra That Narai Cheng Weng, a sacred historical site steeped in legend and charm. Here, you'll witness the beauty of ancient Khmer art. Phra That Narai Cheng Weng is an ancient sandstone castle built during the Khmer Empire, around the 16th-17th centuries. While not as grand as other stone castles, the exquisite carvings are still evident, particularly the patterns on the doors and windows, reflecting the craftsmanship of the past. The chedi is situated on a laterite base and is square in shape, with steps leading up to it. In addition to its historical significance, there's also a legend that tells of the construction of this chedi, which stemmed from the love between two groups of women: a Phu Thai woman and a Lao woman. The chedi's construction was driven by the love of two groups of women, a Phu Thai woman and a Lao woman, who competed against the sun to build it. This creates an intriguing and romantic story, further attracting tourists. Phra That Narai Cheng Weng is not only a sacred site, but also a historical site that seamlessly blends architectural beauty with historical stories. Coming here allows you to both pray and learn about history. If you're in Sakon Nakhon, don't forget to stop by! Have you been there? Anyone else? Come share and chat with us!
