[2025 Sangkhla Buri Attraction] Travel Guide for Underwater Temple (Updated Jul)

🛕 This temple was built as a representative of the Karen people because its name is similar to Phra Si Suwannakiri, the governor of Sangkhla Buri. It is the oldest temple among the three temples. 🕋 The temple is located at the end of the Rantee River and is quite lower than Wat Wang Wiwekaram (old), so this area is flooded all year round and is submerged in water⛩ the most. When the water rises, only some parts will be exposed or sometimes completely submerged. The only thing that can be seen is the top of the original bell tower, which is above the water. This is during the late rainy season and early winter, from around October to January. ⭐️ During the dry season, the water behind the dam will decrease a lot, so you can walk in and visit the old church in the Sam Prasob area. You should visit during the summer, from around March to April. 📍 Underwater Temple, Wat Si Suwanna, Old, Nong Lu Subdistrict 📌 Sangkhla Buri District Kanchanaburi Province 71240 ⏰ Boat service 06.00-18.00 📸 There are many photo spots, many points, all 3 temples ☎️ Call to contact near the Mon Bridge, it will be very cheap 🚗 There is a parking lot, you can park in front of the bridge 🚢 You can board the boat at the Mon Bridge 💸 All 3 temples pay 500 baht #Kanchanaburi #KanchanaburiReview #KanchanaburiTravel #Thailand #MissNature #WaitingForTheDayToDepart #CentralTeam #FamilyTrip #BeautifulPhotoSpots #ForestTrip #NationalParkTravel
