A temple that most people would never find, S.W. Samui... I'm not sure of it's name

[samuijimmy]

This is the view from another near by Temple in the area, on the right side you can see the "Temple" posted above, to the left there is a Temple in the shape of a boat, I have never managed to actually find that one! Yet!

Wat Phratat Phanom, Mukdahan (on a very,very rainy day)

Popularly held to be one of the four sacred pillars of Thai religion
(the other three are Chiang Mai’s Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, Wat Mahathat
in Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Wat Phra Phutthabat near Lopburi)

Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol,Roi Et

This huge chedi is 101 meters long, 101 meters wide and 101 meters high
and was built on a plot measuring 101 Rai, which is about 40 acres. The
number 101 comes from the name of the province it is located in, namely
Roi Et, which means 101 in Thai.

Great stuff...one of the best topics have gone through in a while

I don't have a pic but wat tuan tow near Pak Chong was interesting stair followed by cave followed by secret cave and then a white tree and a black tree growing up through the roof of the cave. Maybe someone has a picture or two

[samuijimmy]

This is a new Wat they have been building south of Lamai Samui, for a while now .... (several years) .... I assume one day it will be decorated, although it is quite striking the way it is.

Wat Pu Sing,Kalasin

[samuijimmy]

Well I guess not a Wat....but Hua Thanon Mosque. Near Lamai Samui.

Wat A Building in progress Kao Koh 2012

[shaggy1969]

Wat Nong Chang,Tha Khantho

Maybe a more morbid side of the temple is the cremation house,but in a way Thai funerals are also a thing of beauty.

[Dancealot]

Walk 3times around the statue

[samuijimmy]

Spirit Houses... near Waikiki beach Samui..... Yes Samui has a Waki waki beach!

[samuijimmy]

I meant for you to zoom in and notice the guy plastering alone. To me it seems he is doing the building single handedly..

The foundations on my pic are very good, also...
