Wat Noen Phra Nao

TIME : 2016/2/17 17:07:01

This forest wát on the south side of town is a respected vipassana (insight meditation) centre on pleasant, tree-shaded grounds. Some extremely ornate temple architecture, including perhaps the most rococo bell tower we've ever seen, stands in contrast with the usual ascetic tone of forest monasteries. There are many Vietnamese graves here and some of the statuary wouldn't be out of place at Sala Kaew Ku.
