What it is

The mountain west of the city, 1,676 m, with the temple two-thirds of the way up. Huay Kaew Road and then the monk's road of 1935 climb it; the moat's water comes down from it; and the western ring road runs along its foot on the irrigation canal.

The long version

Inference — the 2025 plan for an elevated road on Route 121 was argued against partly because it might block the view of this mountain from the plain. A road in this city is judged by whether you can still see the mountain over it.
