Monkeys and the Temple
We had previously decided that this was a must having not been able to visit this temple on a previous trip to Thailand as we were to far away..Now my wife has a fascination with monkey's why I dont know as having read on TripAdvisor that we were both going to get savaged by over weight monkeys I was dubious about going anywhere near them......Well I dont know what other visitors had done to them during their visit but I can assure you they were as good as gold, yes they did snatch bags of food from you and run off up the nearest tree to devour it other than that no problems what so ever even the mothers carrying the babies were good. The temple itself is spectacular set in a cave it contains many large statues of Buda and a calming atmosphere of tranquility with the opportunity to take many pictures. The grounds surrounding the cave are beautiful filled with brightly coloured golden buildings set in the backdrop of the cliffs. Also a verity of shops at the entrance to the attraction where you can buy a refreshing cold drink as the heat is quite unbearable all together a fantastic day out well worth it.
