The monk doesn't want to sit on the throne 👑 but wants to sit on the ground 🪷🙏

🌟 Review of Wat Phra Nang Din, Phayao 🌟 Those who first hear the name "Wat Phra Nang Din" may be confused 🤔. What is this "Phra Nang Din"? Are you supposed to sit and relax on the grass? 😂 ...But in fact, the principal Buddha image in this temple "really sits on the ground," not on a pedestal like other temples! ✨ 📖 According to legend, there were many attempts to lift the Buddha image onto the pedestal, but no matter how many times they were lifted, obstacles arose and it had to be brought back down. Everyone believes that the Buddha image "chose" to sit on the ground. 🪷 This is where the name "Phra Nang Din" comes from, and it has become a point of worship and pride for the people of Phayao. 🌳 The temple's atmosphere is peaceful and shady, filled with trees and a simple atmosphere. 🍃 As soon as you enter, you're greeted by the faint scent of incense wafting through the air. 🌬️ It's like welcoming visitors. Tourists often come to pay their respects and pray for blessings for careers, health, and good fortune. ✨🙏 The feeling of paying respects to Phra Nang Din is... "Warm and mysterious" 💛 While not as grand as some famous temples, it's filled with charm and a truly palpable sense of devotion. 🕊️ Perfect for travelers seeking peace of mind, or for those seeking spiritual blessings, this temple is sure to delight. 📸 Plenty of photo opportunities, whether you're looking to relax, make merit, or social media, you'll find stunning photos. 🧡 📌 Summary: Wat Phra Nang Din is a temple with a truly unique identity, steeped in legends, beliefs, and a homely atmosphere filled with the warmth of the locals. 🏡 Don't miss this if you're visiting Phayao. 🚗💨 #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck
