The place where Phanthai Norasing got beheaded
This is regarded as the symbol of honesty. It was erected to be a memorial to Phanthai Norasing, a man of integrity of the Ayutthaya period. The historic event occurred in 1704 when Phra Chao Sua, a king of Ayutthaya, made a royal visit by the Ekkachai royal barge via the curved Khok Kham Canal. Phanthai Norasing, who was the coxswain, could not operate the steering, thus causing the prow to be broken by hitting the limb of a tree.
For this mishap he asked and begged to get beheaded.
The story is Thai, but my believing is different.

eine eigenwillige Geschichte, die aber gut die Vielzahl an Hähnen erläutert. Die bunte Atmosphäre ist irgendwie völlig konträr zur StoryServus, Wolfgang
