Also known as the Sakya Muni Gaya Temple, this temple owes its existence to a monk named Vuttisasara. The main feature of this temple is the 15-metre Buddha statue that almost fills the temple's interior. Weighing 300 tonnes, it is draped in gold, green and red cloth. The figure is surrounded by a halo of electric lights that is normally lit in the evenings. Venture into the massive statue and you will find a reclining Buddha in the process of attaining enlightenment. Murals highlight milestones in the Buddha's life.
