Back To Thailand

If you thought I was done writing about Thailand oh how wrong you are.

These are some random photos with captions from the trip

This is the Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya, the whole thing is made of wood, hand carved and there are no nails or screws.  It has been under construction for about 20 years and is a bit more than half done.

Sanctuary of Truth, also called Wang Boran and Prasat Mai is a 105m wooden temple featuring contemporary fantastic religious art, currently being built in Pattaya, Thailand.

Begun in 1981 and scheduled to be complete in 2025, it is in the style of the ancient Khmer architecture such as that at Angkor and entirely covered in hand-carved wooden sculpture. It has four gopura, respectively representing images from the Buddhist and Hindu religion and mythologies of Cambodia, China, India and Thailand.

This was posted in the lobby of “The Vault Hotel” where I stayed in Pattaya.  Anyone who has been to Pattaya will immediately see the humor in this, needless to say The Vault may not have been the best place for them to stay.
