Wat Bahn Den
Here is an interesting Wat, obviously more of a tourist attraction than a religious center but a pretty cool place to see if you are in the area.
The area, by the way, is on the way to Mae Ngat Dam in Chiang mai out past Mae rim district.
This first pic is of replicas they are building of all the popular Chedis in Chiang mai.

Not sure what the theme is supposed to be but think it is just a lot of better known wats in Chiang mai kind of rolled into a collage.

Anyway, just a pictorial to give you an idea what the place is like..
Enjoy, in whatever way you see fit..

Anybody been yet?
Would like to the anybody's opinion on the place...
In mine, seems like a place made for the sole purpose of tourists, thai/farang, to take pretty pictures.

Interesting looking place and nice pictures. The fourth picture makes the place look a little like a golf driving range if you took away the animals. It amazes me where they get the money to build all these temples ?
