Nakhon Si Thammarat is one of the southern provinces changwat of Thailand, on the western shore of the Gulf of Thailand. Neighboring provinces are from south clockwise Songkhla, Phatthalung, Trang, Krabi, and Surat Thani. The call of the province derives from its Pali–Sanskrit call Nagara Sri Dhammaraja City of the Sacred Dharma King, which in Thai pronunciation turns into Nakhon Si Thammarat. Hae Pha Khuen That Festival is well known at Phra Borom That Chedi.

The pagoda is considered to be the representative of Lord Buddha and is believed via locals to possess unsurpassed might of righteousness because it includes holy relics. Every year Buddhists pay homage to the pagoda via organizing a procession bearing a religious material to wrap around the pagoda to bring suitable fortune and success.
