Reviewed By pianocello - Shah Alam, Malaysia

This is a beautiful and unique temple that is probably nothing like other temples you have seen in Thailand. The bells are contribute to the serene atmosphere. There are a couple of issues you need to be aware. There is a wide open space in front of the temple where you have to take off your shoes and depending on whether it is a really hot day or raining could be quite inconvenient, Also as some have pointed, there are mosquitoes in the evening so take the usual precaution.
