Comment
The Phra That Kham Kaen is an important, revered chedi for the people of Khon Kaen and surrounding provinces because they believe that the chedi will protect their lives and bring peace and success. The 19-meter-high structure is also said to contain a relic of the Buddha - an ancient document. The town of Khon Kaen was named after this chedi. It is also depicted on Khon Kaen's provincial seal and flag.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phra_That_Kham_Kaen
