Nakhon Sawan
These images are from Wat Woranat Banphot in Nakhon Sawan.Nakhon Sawan is a Thai city and province about 250 kilometers away from
Bangkok. It's famous for being the location where the main rivers that run through Thailand meet and form the massive Chao Praya River. Up until recently, not many foreign tourists made it to Nakhon Sawan Province, preferring to stick with Bangkok, Chiang
Mai and Phuket. In the last couple of years though, more people are getting to Nakhon Sawan and realizing it's actually an interesting
Thai city to visit. The last time I was in Nakhon Sawan, I was surprised at what there is to do there. Nakhon Sawan Province is especially interesting for those tourists who like to see real Thai culture as, here, what you'll see is real Thai life - not the
fake Thai culture you see in many tourist areas. If you do get up to Nakhon Sawan though, where are the best places to visit? Wat Woranat Banphot - Wat Woranat Banphot is an extremely interesting Thai temple to visit as it has a replica of what is supposedly
Buddha's footprint, and also has a small pagoda which holds one of the relics of Lord Buddha. The temple is on the top of a mountain just outside Nakhon Sawan and has beautiful gardens full of flowers, gorgeous temple courtyards to wander around and an amazing
view of the city, mountains and jungle around Nakhon Sawan.
