There's been a lot written about this place and no wonder. I had prepared by reading the story of the monk who designed and worked on it building up followers and community support. The result is about 200 statues that give an original perspective on Buddhism, Hinduism and life. The great mother features also. The statues are sometimes humourous, reverential, philisophical or practical. Some teach a lesson. For instance near the entry is an elephant pressing forward with about 100 small dogs yapping at him. The lesson don't lose your purpose by listening to gossip and negativity. A cartoon in stone. The long inscriptions are all in Thai so maybe a Thai friend can translate for you or read in advance for a deeper understanding. Enter the eternal mother's womb and receive a panaroma of couplehood and parenthood. Stunning, entertaining, thought-provoking, calming and spiritual. How's that for a package? A modest 40 baht entry for non-Thais who pay 10 baht. I'd gladly pay 400 baht same as a national park. I'm sure it just pays for upkeep and gardening.

My wife and I packed our motorcycle for a trip to Wat Pha Tak Suea and the Skywalk. The tempel has a wonderful view over Mekong, over to Laos. I’m terrified of height but I managed to walk the Skywalk, and it felt very safe. The view is spectacular. Coming by motorcycles, the road up to the temple is also great. Lots of up and down, through winding turns. After the temple we drove in to Nong Khai for the night.

The Nong-Khai city hall must have paid a lot to make the new promenade along the banks of the Mekhong river beautiful decorated with hundreds of green and golden "Dragon Lamposts" and intricate bricklaying so you can sit there in the evening restaurant's and enjoy the sundown over the Friendship bridge, in a few months the whole place will host the Mekong river race for very fast speedboats and water scooters. SOOOO COOL.
