The story of the Buddha image now housed in Wat Traimit is intriguing and indeed quite amazing. Hidden under the stucco plaster of a larger image was a solid gold Buddha image weighing in at an astounding 5.5 tonnes and only discovered when the original plaster-covered image was dropped, chipped and a golden glow seen from within! Just why it was covered is still unknown, however it and its story continue to amaze visitors since it was discovered in 1955.
