Wat Traimit is a second-class royal temple of the Worawihan class and originally was called Wat Sam Chin because there is a story that there were three Chinese people who worked together to build this temple. The interior has some interesting items like the Phra Maha Mondop, which is where Phra Phuttha Maha Suwanna Patimakon or Luangpho Thong Kham is enshrined. It has been regarded as a priceless Buddha image since the past. The Buddha image with the appearance of gold contains a large amount of pure gold.
