English: -The word “Mon” means hill and “Shae” means city. So, Mon Pya Shae of Lam Parng City could mean the chief hill of the city. Mon Pya Shae is located in Tumbol Pichai, Muang District, and is in the north east of Lam Parng Province. It is a park area. -In this area there is Mon Kai Khia where Mon Pya Shae Temple is located.
