Years ago it was a slog by foot to get to the top of this hill, nowadays the modern road will get you to the top in moments. This is another destination brought to you by the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Thai Big Business Buddhism. Years ago there wasn’t much here but a little old chedi and as Putthabat means a Buddha Footprint. I noticed that many of the online sites do not even mention the footprint, chedi , or the correct name of the wat, anymore, only talking about the view.
