Please Pray for the Buddhist's of Thailand, that they will see that God can offer them so much more than thier idols and rules. That there eyes will see signs and visions of the love that God has for them. |
| Dancers outside the temple, people throw money into the dish for 'extra' blessings |
 |
| Buddhist's on tour - they come and visit temples to gain experience |

| after praying before we entered the temple, we found the amazing gold statues etc. The high peak represents the stages in which they go to reach Nivarna - a place of 'nothingness', which all Buddhist try to reach through good deeds, and following the rules (commandments) of Buddha |
 |
| The very large, steep and long staircase - lots of fun to climb! With amazing things to find at the end |
 |
| A 'mini' temple were a buddhist monk sits and blesses each buddhist vistor |
 |
| children join the 'monkhood' at a young age, after paying alot of money. It is the ultimate thing to do as a parent, to have your son join for at least one year. (did you know that their are buddhist nun's as well?) |
 |
| The amazing view from the temple, on a clear day you can see all of chiang mai and beyond |
