Trip Report - Wat Khao Din - Bangpakong

[David48]

Just thought I'd share yesterdays trip to Wat Khao Din - Bangpakong

It was difficult to find out any information, so I presume a less visited location.

Wat Khao Din is located 14 km from the city along Chachoengsao Chachoengsao - Bangpakong. Turn left at the Ban Pho district, 22 km, the nature of his soil is a granite rock hill Khao Sam Muk is located approximately 15 meters alone, surrounded by rice fields. On top of the hill is home to the Temple, or Wat Khao Din Ptye pump Taram November.

Due to the terrain, the compactness of the building ... difficult to get a good overall photo ... the shot in the OP is not mine, but from the website mentioned.

First building encountered in the upper Temple grounds.

The lower area is a big car park ringed with the monks domicile.

The next structure ...

What appealed about this place was it was quiet, relaxed and 'quirky' in it's own way.

One of the focal parts of the Temples ante-theater was an unusual image in the next few posts ... a Burt Reynolds type image ... one I can only presume relates to a former King or figurehead of Thailand.
