Thailand: Sangkhalaburi - Sunken Temple

This post gonna be a quick one. 

Sangkhalaburi has not only Mon-Bridge, but a beautiful lake as well. There is a famous sunken temple in the middle of the lake, but you can only see it sunken in the right season, which is raining season. Otherwise, that is just an abandoned temple nearby the lake. 

I am not sure when is the dry season but i certainly sure end of year is raining season, because we saw the temple sunken in the middle of the lake. 

So in one fine evening, John and I rent a boat from the resort for a sunset sunken temple tour, which last about an hour. 

And below photos were how was the sunken temple looked like. 

This is part of the temple. Local called it pagoda.

close-up and it was beautiful 

and yea, in the middle of the lake

and the half building is the temple, located about 100 meter from the sunken pagoda.

Locals still boating and pray with flower.  

It grows a life.

from the temple, to the pagoda and yea this is a huge lake.

sunlight on the building

this is not a huge temple but outstanding enough to stood in the middle of the lake.

close-up of the little plant on the top of the sunken temple. 

last picture because back. What an experience. 

You might think this is bored, i wish my words could tell you more about the atmosphere of boating in the huge calm lake and touring the sunken temple in one fine evening.

But well, again, if you wanna know more, go travel =)

Alright next will be a short day tour to the temple (none sunken!) nearby!
