Trees

[Kan Win]

Hi Folks,

Hope I am not barking up the wrong tree nor "Barking Mad' in posting this new fred thread.

Trees, branches and roots as well.

So lets see yours like I saw mine:-

Buddha head overgrown by a fig in Wat Mahatat in Ayutthaya historic park, Thailand.

Though the body is gone, the sandstone head is entrapped in the roots and lies beneath a Bodhi tree in the vicinity of Wat Mahathat in Ayutthaya. This piece of ancient antique is extremely precious albeit it is trapping under a tree. Look and appreciate but no touching please so that this piece of ancient-natural arts is preserved for everybody's enjoyment.

The construction of Wat Mahathat begun during the reign of King Borommarachathirat I in 1374 A.D. but completed during the reign of King Ramesuan (1388-1395 A.D.) The architecture of Wat Mahatat had several prangs of Khmer style. While the octagonal chedis showed the influence of Ceylonese.

Go on and hug a tree or two, it will make you feel much better in your life, and please use the bum spray when in Thailand, to save on paper
