What's cool about Thai temples is that each one is unique. You can stumble upon one and if you stop and really LOOK at it, you see cool things. One that stands out for me personally is the one across from a place where I was eating breakfast at Fern Forest Cafe in Chiang Mai (Wat Dab Pai). I wandered inside and...there were millions of various colored mirrored tiles (tiny ones). It looked like the temple was decorated with Christmas ornaments in terms of color (red, blue, green, silver, gold). Outside, looks like a 'standard temple', like all the others, but inside with all those cool tile mosaics...incredible.

So we just sold everything and are planning our first trip to Vietnam and Thailand as we speak. I have watched HUNDREDS OF VIDEOS at this point trying to find the most amazing sites in both countries so that we can maximize our three months in the region. This video is BY FAR the best video on temples. You have raised the bar so high, don't see anyone else hitting it ever. Well done my friend. Subscribed and I hope to learn more from your travels in the coming months!

Paddy just a tip. You can create your own map(s) on Google Maps and add pins & notes, and categorize, etc. Then benefit of this is that you only need to share 1 link to your map

This was great. I wish it would have been a Top 20 list. But I totally agree with you on the first choice in Petchabun. Absolutely stunning. I might have added in the White Temple in Chiang Rai, but I guess that is more of an art piece than a temple. Same with the Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya. Art piece rather than actual temple. Interesting note on your #2 choice, in Ayutthaya. When I was there, there were signs posted around the entrance saying "thieves are active in the area. Please be aware of your belongings." Also, when I walked around the giant golden Buddha to the back of the statue, I saw a ginormous cockroach scurrying across the floor. So it sort of took points away from that temple. I really would have put Wat Arun in there near the top. It is my all time favorite temple in Bangkok, and probably my #2 in all Thailand after Wat Phrathat Phang Song Kao in Petchabun.

I've visited Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai and several wonderful locations in Ayutthaya. I'm going to need a bigger bucket -- The list has certainly grown after watching this video.

I totally agree with your number one choice. It is 20 minutes from our home. There are some hidden rooms that you missed when you visited it. If you are ever here again try and join a tour by the head monk and you will get to see rooms full of millions of crystals and even a Miss Universe sceptre that was donated by a Thai Miss Universe. inside the 5 headed Buddha on the 3 floor there is also a crystal encrusted Buddha statue that is spectacular.

Petchabun is such an underrated province for tourists. The temples as included in this video are spectacular and awe-inspiring. The landscapes in the Petchabun are just amazing. The weather in Petchabn is fantastic very moderate when considered to most other provinces. There are many decedents that originated from Vietnam in this province adding some diversity to its food culture

Kanchanaburi province also has some amazing temples not that far way from Kanchanaburi city centre, such as Wat Tham Suea (Tiger temple) and Wat Baan Tham (with the entrance of a dragon mounth + great view from the mountain).

Superb presentation of the very best of the best Wats Paddy. Petchabun is extraordinary, set in a beautiful landscape. As for belief's, Buddhism is more about philosophy rather than a god or man/female worship. I think this philosophy is the essence and reflection of all the things we like in the majority of Thai people and Thai culture.

This video is so cool just one thing was that the scenery kept switching to you talking every few seconds. I feel like you should have just put in your talking audio in the background when showing the scenery instead of switching peoples attention frequently to just clips of you talking to the camera at a random spot. I make videos like that so people aren’t just watching a person talk to the camera instead of the scenery. Just a suggestion so you don’t spend more energy making an extra video if you recording yourself talking to the camera!
