Chaiyaphum - Buddha's Hill

"Buddha's Hill" is located about 30 km (19 mi.) from Chaiyaphum (follow the 201 north for about 13 km (8 mi.), turning left onto a track for a further 17 km (11 mi.)). Here, carved from one of the area's many sandstone boulders are seven Dvaravati-style Buddha figures. These, but more particularly the 2-m (61/2-ft) high seated Buddha adorning another boulder near by, are the object of an annual pilgrimage to the site.
