Review & FAQ:

The five acres of land required for the Wat Buddharangsi Buddhist Temple were acquired in 1986. The ground was laid in1995 and the complex took till 2002 to complete. The Marble Temple in Bangkok generously donated funds and several decorative items which were made in Thailand and shipped over. At the opening, 150 monks from Bangkok came to pay their respects. The statue of Buddha (Video) was also sculpted in Bangkok. It is 23 feet high and almost 7 feet wide. It weighs five tons and is made largely of bronze with brass, copper, silver and gold embellishments. The Thai language, culture and music are taught at the complex.
