Wat Pa Phu Kon - The majestic hidden temple of North East Thailand

#myhiddengems Hidden away on a hilly woodland in a remote part of Na Yung–Nam Som National Park, about 126km from Udon Thani City, is Wat Pa Phu Kon, probably the most stunning temple in Issan…. The interior of the temple just as breathtaking because in the main assembly hall, you will find a 20m statue of a marble Reclining Buddha crafted entirely of Italian Carrara White Marble with the marble sourced from the same quarries as Michelangelo’s David, Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Marble Arch London. On auspicious occasions, dappled light shines through the stained glass ceiling. This light casts an array of mesmerizing patterns over the Buddha statue…. Truly a sight to steal your breath away…. #watpaphukon #nongkai #amazingthailand
