Wat Pramote, an ancient temple in Samut Songkhram
It is located at Ban Pramote, Moo 2, Tambon Ban Pramote, Amphoe Bang Khonthi, Samut Songkhram Province. Wat Pramote is an ancient temple built in an unknown year and has been dilapidated. It is believed to be a temple with an age similar to Wat Bang Khae, which is located nearby. Eventually, Phra Khru Wimolkiet came to perform a ritual and started to rebuild the temple. The first abbot was appointed as the chief monk, followed by the subsequent abbots who continued to inherit the position. The rebuilding and ritual activities made Wat Pramote a complete temple in terms of its religious structures, such as the ubosot, the scripture hall, the bell tower, the chedi, and so on. This made Wat Pramote a clean and beautiful temple, which should be visited. This temple is fully equipped with education, including a Dhamma school, a primary school, and a Buddhist college.
