Lovely temple in central Phrae
When we visited the temple, we were lucky that a Monk, who spoke English greeted us. He was very informative and friendly.

Revered Sleeping Buddha
The sleeping Buddha in question is a few hundred years old, but purports to encase a similar image dating back to the 9th century; thus the reverence accorded to it. On a very different note, the arcade along the side shelters a series of charming modern murals depicting the history of the temple, and, most engagingly, the partying on its feast day, including fireworks, wild dancing, and the drunks who have to be carried out.

Quiet, peaceful temple with huge reclining buddha
Relatively unadorned on the outside the temple has a beautifully decorated main hall with a nice collection of buddhas. Within the temple compound are a variety of buildings and to the left of the main temple is a separate chamber with a huge golden reclining Buddha. When we visited we were the only one’s there. If this was Bangkok the place would have been rammed with people.
