Description: |
|
Built on a hill, it is a quite unique in Thailand that will not
leave indifferent even the most jaded of Buddhist temples. Its
architecture loaded with statues, paintings and details that mix
Buddhism, Hinduism and animism make it an almost unreal place
coming out of a fairy tale. It also offers a nice panoramic view
of the surroundings. The temple was originally a monastery with
a pavilion and a cave where monks came to practice dharma. The
cave is still a popular place for that activity but, for a
curious tourist, it is rather the whole upper part that is worth
the detour. Between the gardens below and all the elements up to
the top, it would take hours to appreciate every detail of the
decoration of this temple whose construction still goes on.
