Photos: Wat Ao Noi Caves, Prachuap

Post by buksida »

Ticking off all of the attractions in Prachuap we realised we hadn't been to this temple and its caves at the northern end of Ao Noi. A short climb lead to the entrance where you put a few coins in the meter to turn on the lights ... or take a lamp in with you. At 12.20 every day a shaft of light illuminates one of the Buddha statues, we were seven minutes too late but you get the general idea.

Nice!!
The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
