Being a good Buddhist of course Buddha is strongly featured.
So hard to photograph this place, just go check the fuker out.
Rather large effort put into building these things, the grounds are huge and rammed full with Images.
The Thais being good Buddhists don't like to kill shit do they, killing each other is OK but don't fuk with the Wasps nest that is directly in the path of the Tourists. There was small sign in Thai warning punters to not go near it.
So we jumped in the car and headed on further along the Mekong. This area is know as the " Navel of the Mekong " which translates to the deepest part of the Mekong in its entire length. The Giant Mekong Cat Fish gather here to spawn.
More later, of to Lumpini.
Hands up amongst you who knew how deep the Mekong river was at this point in Thailand ? Back in the good old days in the middle of the floods it was 196 meters.
Today in the dry season " March " it is 100 meters . Jesus, I never new that. Its friggin deep EH.
Well done, Tel....
Always enjoy your travel pic threads.
Cheers!
A nice part of the Mekong with great views into Lao.

Making the walk way.
Major project going on up here.
And in the other direction as well.
Doing a real nice job, no pissing around.
