    Some might argue this is not a temple in the purest sense of the word but it is called Wat Rong Khun.

Iirc it's called Wat Praputthabaht. They actually make these statues on location. There's another row of them up front that are painted gold. I believe it's on highway 213 north of Sakon Nakhon about 30 minutes. 15-20 minutes away going south from Sang Kho, Phu Phan District.5f5d384c4faa6d79d01171842b22ed30.jpg7e48555ca761ff394fda4c1ba767c612.jpg189d31d4940e93226bf86dbb338b9b58.jpg
