Day 13 – date 19-8-2017 "Wat Huay Pla Kung"

 White Dragon Temple

Today we are planning to go to "Wat Huay Pla Kung" / Great Buddha Temple, our plan is successful because our friend Ida and Yanti are willing to come so we can save transportation cost. We went to "Wat Huay Pla Kung" during the daytime around 2 hours of travel using Grab Taxi which cost about 110 Bath, there are three buildings there but we do not know the name, there is a pagoda, there is a white dragon temple and the largest is the giant Buddha temple.

We take a lot of photos there, there you can walk around in an open car that can accommodate more than 20 people each departure. The car will take you from the front of the pagoda to the top of a gigantic Buddhist temple, From the area of the giant Buddhist temple you can see the scenery around more beautiful because it is the highest place among the three buildings there. When we finished taking pictures, some of our buddy came to pick us up for a walk, After from "Wat Huay Pla Kung" we are invited to stop by to the cafe to buy drinks.

When night came we were invited to take a walk to "Walking Street" there we found a Muslim seller and bought yellow rice and chicken, then we are invited to where the visitors dance, there we danced several times. While resting for a meal we sat down with the mothers who were there, She was very kind as gave us a free drink and really welcomed us, even I was asked to take pictures with the mothers, their names are Liam and Pai-pai, when we said goodbye we also greeted them with Thai greetings then I shook hands with them then Liam pulled my hand and was about to kiss my cheek, she was a little pushy while saying “Your Mother Your Mother” so I do not feel good about refusing it because they are very kind to us. On the way back we continue to look at some of the things that might be interesting for us to buy. We did not join them on the way home, we decided to stay at Adi and Yoga hotel.
