The Legend of The Hermit

          The old Hermit shrine was built in the time of Mr. Kasem Rattanachai who was the first chief in command of Thungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary. The holy monk , Uttama , located the spot at the Lan - Tom hill ( which is nowadays called " The Hermit mount " ) for the Hermit shrine construction . The old Hermit shrine was made of wood and finished on February 17 , 1974 .

           In September , 1998 there was a fire accident , the wooden shrine was almost totally burnt , left only the wooden steps of the shrine . It was a miracle that the Hermit was not burnt down by the fire but left sitting in the midst of the charcoal . In year 2001 , Mr. Paiboon Sawetmalanon , the chief in command of the wildlife sanctuary at that time consulted with WFCC for the Hermit Shrine reconstruction . With the supports from the rangers , workers as well as the villagers , WFCC agreed to reconstructed the Hermit Shrine for the benefit of all sectors.
