Next morning after a wonderful banana pancake breakfast Pan & Andy took us to the temple in the hills overlooking Tha Ton. With a clear blue sky and the sun warming us after a surprisingly cool night we loved the beautiful views over the region and the more modern design of this temple.
Dragons are very much in evidence in and around the temple... |
...in fact you spiral upwards through a dragon's body, as if on the journey from life to death. |
Inside here were the relics of an old monk... |
...and thanks given to those who donated towards the cost of building this temple. |
Back down to explore the surroundings... |
Look carefully and you will see lots of black areas on this Buddha: |
some crafty bees had built their nests there and nobody dare climb on the Buddha to retrieve the wild honey! |
Pick your favourite Buddha! |
