    Wat Chaloem Phrakiat Phrachomklao Rachanuson image
    Nice but feel the charges for foreigners as usual is unreasonably high. Due to that I feel it's ok to come here if you're in the area, but is it worth it to make a special trip? You park at the base, buy your entrance fees, tickets for the ride in the pickup up to the intermediate level. Get out the pickup then start walking. Lots of steep steps going up. The steps are well made. There's some signage along the way explaining things. All in Thai. You would think that after charging the foreigners much higher fees to enter the area they would at least take the trouble to translate the text into foreign language. View of the pagoda at the top is nice, as the pics you see. However the pictures of the top from the drones are much more impressive than your view from where you can stand. Would I go again? Probably not due to the charges. Been there done that. Would I go again if the prices were more reasonable? Only if I was in the area. See more..

    Dhanabadee Ceramic Museum image
    After paying 60 baht entrance fee, we began a tour of Dhanabadee ceramic museum with a local guide that provided interesting informations about origin and evolution of the factory, and the process of making a famous Chinese style "chicken bowl". Also, we visited the real place where these ceramics were produced and watched some demonstrations. The tour ended at the statue of Dhanabadee's founder. Great tour ! After the tour was over, we bought some cutie souvenirs at the shop. There are also a cafe and DIY workshop (painting ceramic) at the place. Pity that we didn't have an enough time to participate this activity. Truly recommend to visit the place. Don't miss this. See more..

    Wat Pong Sanuk Temple image
    The temples and chedis here were very beautiful but my favorite part was the large reclining buddha in one of the temples. The depictions on the bottom of his feet make this place well worth a stop, and the other temples and statues are not to be missed, either. Particularly the 4 statues of the buddha under the Bodhisattva tree. Glad we took the time to pop by! See more..
  5. 4.5 Wat Si Rong Mueang (33 reviews)
    - Another beautiful Burmese temple.

    The over 100 years old Burmese style wooden temple has glamorous cascading reddish roofs. It was already 6 p.m. when we arrived there, so we were not allow to enter the main hall. The only thing we could do was taking photos in front of this beautiful temple. What a pity. See more..
