Sattahip Temples

This Chinese temple is just outside of Sattahip right close to the Queen Sirikit Hospital, small temple and if your passing its still not worth bothering stopping for unless your stopping for a lovely snack at the 7/11 next door to it.

Got to admit like the way they have lit up the eyes, wonder if they think real dragons had fiery eyeballs. Thank God for the wonders of modern technology like light bulbs and electric.



As you can see it is only a small temple, also Sattahip is surrounded by, hmmmm, I would say hills but the Thais no doubt call them mountains.



One of the shrines of the temple.



The entrance to the Temple.



Place to burn your monopoly money, wonder if the rich Thai Chinese ever burn real money.



Nice oil paintings on the walls all over the place.



Another shrine booth. There was 2 of these booth shrines, I assume they are for different things or would it be to help beat the queues?



Dead opposite the Chinese Temple across the road is a Thai Buddhist Temple with a big fat golden Buddha.
