For those born on Wednesday night (from 6:00 PM Wednesday to 6:00 AM Thursday), the Phra That Murak Khon is considered the sacred relic associated with their birth day. It is enshrined at Wat Murak Khon, a forest temple that has been around for approximately 300 years. This is the only forest temple housing such a relic, located in Don Nang Hongs Subdistrict, That Phanom District, about 40 kilometers from the city center. Constructed in 1993 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of His Majesty the King’s reign, the stupa is made of bricks and cement, with a square design resembling Phra That Phanom but on a smaller scale. It is believed that those who pay their respects, especially those born on Wednesday night, will experience prosperity and well-being.
