Giant statue of Luang Poo Thuad (fig.), a highly venerated Buddhist monk from the Ayutthaya Period AD, who lived in Pattani and is said to have performed miracles, at Wat Huai Mongkhon in Hua Hin.

The statue has a lap width of 9.9 meters and a height of 11.5 meters, and was at the time of its construction claimed to be the largest in the world, but similar large statues of this famous historical monk from southern Thailand have later been erected in other places too, sometimes seated on a cobra snake (fig.) and many with much larger dimensions (fig.). This one sits on a 3-storey base, 70 meters wide and 70 meters long, which doubles as a large hall for worshiping.
