Trip to Thailand & Laos- Nan Part 2

My second morning I hired the hotel van and driver to take me around to the major temples.


Our first stop was a Wat on top of a hillside where some repairs were underway on one of the doors.





Where the monks sit and pray.








An old Chedi under repair.


This gorgeous golden Buddha overlooked the valley and it must have been a wonderful sight during clear weather.





Stairs going down the hillside.

The carvings on the outside of the buildings was quite exceptional.


















And wonderful murals inside one of the buildings. And these weren't even the best murals in town!





























The doors were quite spectacular too.
