Holy Shrines
We came here twice, first time was ok, but the 2nd time we came it was SUPER CROWDED ! Almost a 2km queue to get into the main temple, however the queue is always very well managed and orderly. The main temple is to cross the causeway (no shoes) leading to an island, once there, there are a few shrines to pray. There are also big Gongs for one to strike and listen to the reverbing sounds. Coming back from the island, there are many shrines there too, look out for the Gold and Black Gold Buddha temples. There are many snacks and drinks stalls around. The place can get very hot, do keep hydrated.

interesting natural area, more an attraction than a temple
The back-story is that a local naga spirit (dragon-like being) lives in this natural area. I'm not so sure about all that but it does have an interesting look and feel, beyond being a bit crowded, and people coming to make wishes or get winning lottery numbers turning it into a bit of a spiritual theme park area versus a quiet place for reflection. All the same it was cool, and something to see.

Beautiful attraction
Lovely Thai temples set in the far north east of Thailand. About 90 min from Udon Thani. Very peaceful and some nice board walks that are well shaded. There's lots of souvenirs and street food which we tried.
