A few more photos from Chiang Mai, Thailand. I didn't notice the sign for foreigners until after having visited the temple. They charge about 1 USD for entrance, but are not too obsessed about collecting it.
A display to honor the king of Thailand. Many people wear yellow shirts to show support for the monarchy although officially Thailand is democracy (elections are promised within one year).
The wooden part of this wat is much newer than the stone part.
It was strange to see the temple grounds used as a parking lot, but this location is in the middle of the city.
