sunshine51 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 ^^^ @ SJ... This is most likely a field workers "away" dwelling for the times in the forest. On field treks in the bush I have come across many of these all over Southeast Asia. Many folks tend to natural plants like cashews & wild banana's etc up in the hills & build these to keep em cozy during their stay. This is a really nice one, many are dilapidated. Good discovery! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob8891 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 DOI CHANG: This was not exactly a wat.... It was a shrine (with a small wat in it, but I did not snap it). Exact location is still a mystery to me! The guardian at the gate This lovely shrine lay in the middle of a forest Hill people used to grow opium poppies here. Spirit house guarding a well from where they take water when HM the King blesses Thailand Another shrine in a lake This looks as if it's floating! A separate shrine, near the summit of Doi Suthep. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob8891 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Wat Phra Phutthabat Tak Pha, lies to the SW of Lamphun, in amphoe Pa Sang. Amongst all the oddities is a tableau depicting the stages of life.... So far so good! OK on the left, but getting depressing at the far end OK, enough already! No matter what angle I approached this, it was just wrong! Edited January 15, 2014 by Rob8891 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 New little Mosque on Samui... not the most attractive one I've ever seen... but handy for the Muslims who live or visit, on the north end of the island! (Maenam) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Genericnic Posted February 10, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2014 Wanted to get out of Chiang Mai and get some fresh air so I headed up to Wat Doi Thaen Phra which is up past the Jo Cheek Reservoir located north east of Mae Jo University. Would have gotten some other pictures but was having to shoot around tents. I think they are getting ready for Makha Bucha day already.
