i went here several years ago while living in thailand. this place was the most amazing environment i had ever been in. i have photos as well (but they are in bangkok now).
thanks!
Yes, I agree! Sulilat's works are greatly inspired and in a such an off-track location! All the more pity that most tourists seem to treat them as some sort of freak-out Disneyland... Oh well, some people will always be able to appreciate!
is this your picture? wow! how great is it! I want to visit Buddah park and Sala keoku someday. I think It's so awesome that usual people can't do like that.
Nice pics. Want to pass on a link of a 7-headed serpent carving apparently resembling Princess Naga from an historic video of Cambodia produced in 1910, at 3:00.
