Has issued a certificate of the condition of a temple given on February 26, 1987, saying that "it is a complete temple under the Sangha Administration Act, R.E. 121".
 
History of the temple has discovered an important book that King Chulalongkorn, King Rama V, has written a royal title on the Buddha image and has an important message about Wat Ratchakhiri Hiranyaram that.
 
"The Lord Buddha went there for alms. and stopped at the bottom of the anchor where he anchored which was formerly called Phanom Samor should be the site of Buddhism Therefore, Sergeant Nok Rong and Sergeant Karn Boon were ordered. Control the troops and food supplies to inspect the geography in that area. When the two sergeants arrived at the place where they said that the Lord Buddha had gone to alms round, saw that it was a good Chaiyaphum. suitable for building a new city.
 
therefore had to go up to the King Sridhamma Tripitaka King of Chiang Saen and King of Si Satchanalai King Pasujarat Father of Queen Pathummavadee Consort of King Sridhamma Tripitaka Both of them joined together to build a new city in 1496 on the first Friday morning of the 3rd night R.E. 315 and gave the city the initial name. Phitsanulok Okhaburi It is regarded as the destiny of Phitsanulok. Since then to the present by virtue of the aforementioned circumstances.

Phra Buddha Chinnarat 1 Buddha image, the second one named Phra Buddha Chinnasi one Buddha image and the third one named Phra Sri Satsada.
 
The first time he poured the gold after the puppet was formed and it appeared that only two pieces of gold were complete. Phra Buddha Chinnasi and the Master, the first one who gave the name Phra Phuttha Chinnarat is not full of gold. and Phra Chao Sridhamma Tripitaka He did it two more times. The gold is not yet full which made him very saddened.
 
Later, he, along with Empress Dowadi, Empress Dowadi, both of them jointly set up the truth of the sacrament, taking the risk of taking merit. therefore managed to create a new puppet This time, there was a Chee Pa Khao (Ta Pa Khao) who volunteered to help make a puppet. Made with a lot of strength day and night no time off When the figure is finished His Highness poured gold on Thursday, the 8th day of the waxing moon (was a holy day, Buddhist holy day), the 6th month, the year of the Snake, Nov. Nov. 319, Buddhism. 1500 years have passed, 7 days have passed.
 
And gave an order to Aradhana congregation of monks which is surrounded by that city Both Kamwasi and Aranyawasee have "Phra Upali and Phra Sirimanon" who are at Khao Samor Krang Temple as the president to pray the Buddha's prayer. Mahamongkol Praying the Truth Aradhana the goddess to help in that. The gold was flowing in its entirety. It was a great joy for both of them. and Cheepa Khao who came to help in doing that went out of that place and disappeared through the northern city gate and having reached a certain district, it was lost. without being seen again. Later, the district was called Tambon Ta Pa Khao, as long as today.
 
For the reason, as mentioned in the royal writings of King Rama V, Khao Samor Klang Temple which includes the Elder, Phra Upali and Phra Sirimanont Receiving the chanting of Phra Parit and the Buddha's mantra twice would show that.
 
Wat Khao Som Krang was of great importance in those days. and tenses appear later in the present The temple is a temple that is correct according to the principle of rule of the monks R.S. 121, there is only one temple located on Khao Samor Krang, which is Wat Ratchakhiri Hiranyaram.
