Hike to Mountian Temples

Boy pointed us in the direction of the 3 temples in the mountains. The first one, the forest temple, was a 30 min hike up! Boy undersold the terrain so Claire trekked it in her nice dress and sandals 😅

First temple was awesome, hard to capture in photos but it was built in 1298 with many buildings and statues along a waterfall. It was a very peaceful place.

We hopped in a truck to take up to the top of the mountain to the most famous temple,
Wat Phra That. We walked up the huge staircase lined with green dragons to the top to see the gold pagoda and the view of the city from the mountain. We were able to see the monks chanting, which Boy told us they do morning and night to memorize teachings.

Claire and I rewarded our little hike with a Michelin guide dinner! They focused on traditional Thai, which meant SPICY 🥵🌶️ It was still so good.Les mer
