The Big Buddha, formally known as Mahaminh Sakayamunee Visejchaicharn and informally as Phra Buddha Maha Nawamin, stands 92 meters tall and 63 meters wide at Wat Muang Monastery. Completed in 2008, this enormous golden concrete statue towers over the surrounding farmland. The original Wat Muang was destroyed in the 18th century, with its reconstruction finished in 1982. Work on the Big Buddha began in 1990 and took 18 years to complete.
