Kanchanaburi is my favorite province in Thailand, and I just visited Wat Tham Sua this weekend! I was especially impressed and intrigued by the small chapel just off the main stairs, where the mummified body of the wat’s founding abbot is preserved to visit. The glass coffin is set up on an elaborate and ornate golden pedestal, with CCTV cameras showing the monk’s face on TVs for all to see!

The temple is also well-known for a special type of amulet that they sell there, depicting a golden wasp or hornet. This amulet is said to bring wealth and luck to those who wear them!

It’s a beautiful temple, but nothing can beat the views of those rice fields from the top.

I agree, sometimes you want to head off on your own and see different things. I also love the freedom to come and go as I please without having to keep to a bus timetable.

Amazing pictures – they really show off how fantastic and colourful the Thai temples are.

Am a big fan of hiring a scooter or bike to go exploring beyond what you can do by public transport. Worth every penny or baht!

Hi Sarah, Renting a scooter was definitely a good call. The freedom it gives you means you can take the time to visit places at your own pace.

Hi Janna, It was our first trip to Thailand and can’t recommend it enough. Hopefully you will get to experience it one day too.

Hi Cori, Kanchanaburi was one of our favourite places we visited and the Hermit cave was pretty cool, literally lol, so it’s a place we too would visit again.

Hi Nicki, We loved all the colour in Thailand and the temples were the icing on the cake.
