A definite thriller the Mummy Monk in Koh Samui will most certainly have chills going down your spine. In a glass box lays Luong Pordeang who died in 1973; who was at the time of this death in deep meditation. Considering the humidity and other factors it definitely is quite unimaginable how Pordeang’s body has survived through all these years since his death. History has it that this highly revered monk requested his followers to have his body cremated if it was in decay and if it weren’t to have him erected in a glass caskets so to be a symbol of Buddhism for generations to come. This gesture would probably draw up the degree of his piety and constant association with Buddhism leaving behind his teachings as a reminder to all followers of the philosophy. The mummy though not the most pleasant of monuments is one which needs to be viewed by every visitor. One who visits the Wat Khunaram will unfailingly be treated to a dose of commitment and piety that is embodied in this religious spectacle. However, one who ought to visit this place should always take refuge at a fine Koh Samui Resort that would gift you with the convenience of visiting the Wat Khunaram temple.Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort & Spa would assure you of a joyful and convenient holiday right here in Koh Samui.
Enough said, head over to Koh Samui and witness this monument for yourself.
