Presentation Wat Phayap

Thai name : วัดพายัพ

GPS : 14.979529,102.099245 (See on the map)

My opinion:

This temple on Chumphon Road has a cave temple that we would expect to find in the basement or in a small mountain but which is actually inside a building. Completely artificial, it is still a surprising place. A new boat shape marble temple reminding the architecture of its predecessor was built to replace the original building which was ruined and can not be restored.
