On the Red Lotus Lake in Udon Thani, one can go a relaxing, short safari, 'boat on the river' ride, to check out a curious blend of flora and fauna, And the experience is very much, up close and personal, which is great. Additionally there is a nice little mix of cafes and street hawker style shops, close to the water, plus an interesting rainbow coloured jetty, also worth a look. All in all, it really is the proverbial 'hidden gem' (check out my YouTube Vlog), in my opinion. And, one of any in the eternally surprising Isaan (Northeastern) region of Thailand. I will be back.

This is a lovely complex with a lovely tempole and amazing wat that you can go inside and climb a couple of stories up - amazing paintings inside as well. Everyone around seemed very friendly and gentle - just a really nice place to visit.

I went here on a day trip from Udon Thani, and I had a great time. There was almost nobody there so I had the trails mostly to myself. It was incredible to walk among the rocks and marvel at them, as well as the cave paintings and shrines set within them, by myself. The surrounding forest was beautiful and made a great environment for a hike. Highly recommended.

We have seen many Buddhist Wats in our years of travelling around Thailand. This one located on a mountaintop in Isan, near Udan Thani was really impressive. It appeared to be very newly constructed but immaculately created. The architecture of this Wat was very dramatic in size and design with numerous enormous bronze sculptures of huge Yaks and Dragons around the premises. Once inside, I saw the best sculpture of a reclining Buddha that I have ever viewed in Thailand. The features were exquisitely created and the human form was executed very well too.

Ten minutes drive from city center, this is a very interesting Chinese Shrine where you would have a chance to pay respect to 6 devines, the most people would like to visit and pay respect to may be "Poo-Yaa Shrine" which is believed those who pay respect and make a wish, that wish (only one wish) would come true. I could not remember the name of other 5 monks/devines because it is in chinese name but each would bless you prosperity, health and good luck. There is also a "9 turn Shrine" standing in the Nong Bua pond which connecting walk way that has 9 turns before reaching the pavillion.Our group were there in mid January just a week before Chinese New Year and it was almost full moon. The pavilion and the willow tree together with the moon reflects in the water looked stuning. Plus we had a chance to see the rehearsal of the Dragon parade which will be perform at Nong Prajak every year too. Nice to stroll around at night. (Close at 8 p.m.) Lots of parking space.
10. Wat Matchimawat
