The number of people that frequent the shrine has increased as more have faith in the Gods kindness, and they make requests to bring happiness and joy into their lives. The shrine is beautifully decorated in a style that is representative of Thailand, adorned in gold and attractive colors. Visitors will be able to see the faith and reverence that the local people posses, giving them a more in depth view of the culture that Thailand and the island of Koh Samui represent. The shrine is located near the IT complex, and if visitors are in the area they should stop by here.
