Temple ... 160 steps to the top!

On our way back from cutting corn to feed the elephants, we stopped at this temple..



We could see it for miles, since the gold peak of this temple reached so far into the sky.



The inside of this temple was very different from most I've seen in Thailand .... this was more of an octagon, with Buddha statues around the sides and oil paintings on the walls.



In the center of the temple, we found a spiral staircase leading to the very top.... 160 steps took us there.... (great workout!)



The view from the top of the temple was spectacular!



A great meditation room at the very top of the temple.... where I paused...
