Wat Bang Phra is a renowned Buddhist temple located in Nakhon Pathom, Thailand, famous for its tradition of Sak Yant, the sacred tattoos believed to bestow protection and good fortune upon the wearer. The temple attracts both locals and international visitors who seek these intricate, mystical tattoos, often performed by monks or ajarns (masters). Each year, Wat Bang Phra hosts the Wai Khru ceremony, where devotees return to the temple to pay respects to their tattoo masters and recharge the spiritual power of their Sak Yant.
