Masterpiece of Art - Wat Ban Rai
An hour drive from Korat to Wat Ban Rai. A monk respected by the people and the royal family, the residence of LP Koon during his lifetime. After his death people started to expand the place in his memory. The whole turtle body and elephant head building is simply a work of art. The turtle contains many mythological images from India and Buddhism and is well worth a visit.
從Korat 駕車一個小時來到了Wat Ban Rai。一位受人民和皇室尊敬的僧人,龍婆坤生前的住處。他死後人們為紀念他開始擴建這地方。整座龜身象頭建築物簡直就是一件藝術品。龜身上包含許多印度和佛教的神話圖像,非常值得來參觀。
