Hello everyone.
✍️ Yesterday I brought my friends visit a temple built in tai yai art style in mae ai district, which is a neighbor of fang district (the district where I live). Today I will take you to visit another beautiful and peaceful temple. But this temple is in fang district and this temple is also close to Mae Ai District. This temple is called Wat Sao Hin (วัดเสาหิน).
Wat Sao Hin is a thai temple decorated in Lanna art style. Lanna art is the art of the northern people of Thailand. In the past, northern Thai people were called Lanna people. Such as Lanna art, local food of Lanna, etc.

The new chapel will be painted white while the old chapel will be painted brown. Unfortunately today The new chapel is under construction and the old temple has closed its doors. So my wife and I did not go to pay respect to the principal Buddha image in the chapel.
