The Sanctuary of Truth receives The Tourism Authority of

woodcarving workshop and souvenir shops. A tour guide will be provided to
explain to you about the castle for about 20 minutes and then you’ll be free to
view the castle and take photos.
Moral is reflected from beatiful woodcarving at the sky high as if created by a
goddess The Sanctuary of Truth Museum : Located on the beachfront on Ratchavete
Cape, Nakluea Subdistrict, Banglamung District, Chonburi Province, the
woodcarving castle features an eye-catchinh pagoda-shaped structure on the top.

Between the sea and the castle, there is a fence to protect the heavenly
castle. It’s the work of arts by Thai craftmen and artisans in the reign of
King Rama 9. With the experience in the construction of the Ancient City and
in-depth study of art, the architectural team has successfully materialized the
imagination into the spectacular castle. The concept is to have the entire
castle made from different kinds of wood as the value and beauty of the wood
remains.
