With a total area of over 186 Rai, it was once an abandoned temple and served as a cemetary. The terrain in genneral is wetlands oversgrown with reeds in 2497 B.E.(1954), the highly venerated monk Luang Pu Cha initiated a project to turn it into a site suitable for meditation sessions and a monk's residence was established which later became a monastery. The atmosphere is serene and tranquil inducive to the practice of meditation. An interesting structure is the Phra Photiyan Museum housing the spartan personal articles of use and Luang Pu Cha's wax figure.
