Sanctuary of Truth Seven Truths of Buddhism

The Sanctuary of Truth is an incredible 105-tall temple/museum made entirely out of wood. Entirely! Not even metal nails are used in its construction. It’s the biggest attraction in Pattaya and one of the most significant landmarks in Thailand.

The sanctuary was commissioned by the eccentric millionaire Lek Viriyaphan back in 1981, and it’s still being assembled to this day. It’s supposed to be finished around 2025, but I wouldn’t count on that. Lek Viriyaphan was a known patron of culture who spent a large chunk of his fortune on heritage projects (including two of Bangkok’s most picturesque attractions – the Erawan Museum and the Ancient Siam Park). The idea behind the Sanctuary of Truth was to honor Buddhist and Hindu values while simultaneously preserves and support traditional Thai wood-carving techniques.

The local legend says that Mr.Viriyaphan decided to build the shrine in response to the growing tension of the cold war. It was his way to try and teach people to behave well, according to Buddhist teachings, so that we can achieve peace around the world.

As mentioned before, the entire structure is made out of coated hardwood such as takien thong, pradu, daeng, teng, and gold teakwood. It’s all crafted by local craftsmen (many of which are women) right there on the spot. The whole process is fascinating to observe, and you should definitely check it out when you visit.
