We were on our way from the Kai Yai National Park up north to Khao Kho when we can across this place. Great spot for a stop and a stroll through the gallery and the garden for an hour, the entry is free of charge. The staff is very friendly and their is also a small shop and a cafe.

After visiting the Phimai temple, go over to the even less visited museum. With its water and trees it is a serene venue for these beautiful remnants of a more spiritual time. The carved lintels, delicate beads, and nagas speak to us with a voice that we can scarcely understand today unless we stop and listen carefully. The broken statue of King Jayavarman VII is particularly moving. Such a great monarch, and he did not portray himself as a warrior or glorious ruler -- only a simple pose of meditation. We can all learn from Jayavarman VII.

In Isan town of PhiMai you will find this historical site with a temple complex from the Khmer period. It is very nice and well kept. Also quiet, at least when we were there so the visit is very relaxed. Entrance fee is 100 baht for foreigners and 20 baht for Thai nationals. There is parking space at the entrance. A visit will take just over one hour, but is well worth doing.
