Sakon Nakhon, the ancient, Khmer town formerly known as ‘Nong
Han Luang’, is now an important Buddhist religious center
that contains a very sacred Buddha relic, and many forest temple
retreats for meditation founded by a highly revered, deceased Buddhist
monk, considered to be the greatest teacher of all monks. Situated
in the upper northeastern region among the Phu Pan mountain ranges,
it is also a land of natural beauty comprised of green, overlapping
hills. The lifestyle of the people around the town’s vicinity
provides an interesting insight of the local Thais and the Thai
So group.
