1. Luang Phor Sothorn, or Phra Buddha Sothorn, is quite well-known all over Thailand. In a sitting meditation posture, Luang Phor Sothorn is a fine Buddha statue in the style of Lan Xang art.
It is said that in the era of Ayutthaya Kingdom, Burma invaded and looted Ayutthaya. Golden or bronze Buddha statues in temples might be robbed and melted to extract metals. Fearing that these Buddha statues would not survive a burglary, monks masked them with stucco, put them into a raft, and had them float down the river.
Three Buddha statues have different advertures. Luang Phor Wat Ban Laem floated down to the Gulf of Thailand and along the coast to Samut Songkram and has stayed there since then. Luang Phor To floated along Samrong Canal to Bangphli in Samutprakarn.
Luang Phor Sothorn swept down through Bang Prakong River to Chachoengsao. At that time, many methods were tried unsuccessfully to pull Luang Phor Sorthorn out of the river. After people built a shrine for him and used some white threads, they were able to pull it ashore.
Another folk story said that five brothers with magical skills made themselves become five Buddha statues and float down the river to help the needed. Luang Phor Sothorn was one of them, and the other four ones were Luang Phor Wat Rai Khin, Luang Phor To Wat Bang Phli Yai Nai, Luang Phor Wat Ban Laem, and Luang Phor Wat Khao Ta Khrao.
