The Wiharn for 三寬公 Shrine with sacred Phra Sampao Gong or Luang Pho Zhu Cheng wooden Buddha statue of 1.3 meter height. Some people believe that old statue is made from agarwood materials but there is no clear history of its origins. There is only a story that a sailor found the old statue floating in the middle of the sea. Therefore, it was brought to be enshrined on the mast of a ship and later presented to Wat Khlong Thom and is enshrined at this temple until the present day.
