A Night of Serenity at Wat Phra Singh Woramahawihan

As I stepped into the enchanting grounds of Wat Phra Singh Woramahawihan, the temple complex shrouded in the quietness of the night, I was transported back in time. Nestled in the heart of Chiang Mai, this majestic temple seemed to grow more mysterious and intriguing as the moon rose higher into the night sky. Wat Phra Singh, with its rich history dating back to the 14th century, houses the remarkable Phra Singh Buddha image, believed to be modeled after the Lion of Shakya, symbolizing Buddha himself. Despite the tranquil silence that descended on the temple with the setting sun, the spiritual significance and historical resonance of this place were palpable. Nightfall at the temple was a magical experience. Bathed in soft moonlight, the golden chedi glittered, an ethereal beacon standing proud against the starry backdrop. The quiet rustling of leaves, the distant chime of bells, and the whispered prayers of late-night worshippers added to the enchanting atmosphere. There were no bustling markets or street food at this hour, yet the serenity and spiritual aura of Wat Phra Singh were captivating. It was a journey of introspection and peace, a deep dive into Thai culture and history that far transcended the usual tourist experience. My visit to Wat Phra Singh was more than just a trip; it was a spiritual pilgrimage and a mesmerizing exploration of Thailand's rich heritage. This temple, especially under the cloak of night, is a must-visit for every #urbanexplorer. #shopandtrip #myperfectstaycation #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #passionpassport #couplestrip #watphrasingh #chiangmai #templetour #thaiculture #nightexploration #spiritualjourney #historicalsites #travelthailand #buddhisttemple #nightphotography #culturalimmersion #traveldiaries #exploremore #travelgoals #unforgettablemoments #moonlitwonders #amazingthailand #traveladdict #wanderlust #incredibleviews #bucketlistadventure

Temples aren’t my thing to be honest but since I was in Chiang Mai, temple was a must! Went here because this was one of the famous temples in Chiang Mai. You need to pay around 20 bath and for girls, don’t wear shorts/short skirts and tank tops. Because you may need to “rent” a scarf and pay extra bit of money. There were Monk wax statues inside the temples. They looked so real. At first, i thought they were real Monks. That made this temple my favorite one.
