Pha Man Fun

Falling in love with the mountains and this place ⛰ Pha Man Fun 🏠 A stay and café with million-dollar views that you'll fall in love with. Our first trip to Khon Kaen ❤️ We chose to visit Phu Pha Man District in Khon Kaen because we heard it was incredibly beautiful. We were not disappointed. It's a small but charming town, and this time we stayed at 'Pha Man Fun,' a minimalist accommodation with mountain views everywhere you look. The photos turned out stunning. There are only three houses here, each with a relaxing bathtub, a fully stocked minibar, bubble bath, evening barbecue, afternoon tea set, and breakfast—all included in the room rate. It's a great deal, costing just a bit over a thousand baht per person. There's also a café here with fantastic photo opportunities. 🍰 Even if you're not staying, you can stop by for coffee and take beautiful photos in the café area. The café is open daily from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM. The restaurant area is open daily from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM. If you haven't been to Khon Kaen yet, I highly recommend marking this place on your map. 📍Location: Phu Pha Man District, Khon Kaen Province

Khon Kaen's Nine-Tier Pagoda

The Nine-Tier Pagoda, which has been in my favorites for a long time, I finally visited this time. No entrance fee is required, and it's great for photos during the day. The structure is magnificent and layered. You can climb to the top of the pagoda to see the surrounding scenery, which is quite nice. Note that the temple closes at 5 PM, so you can't access the top of the pagoda after that time, only view it from outside. If you get tired or hungry, there are street vendors, cafes, and restaurants nearby to choose from. After 7 PM, the temple lights up, giving it a different feel from the daytime. Location Name: Nine-Tier Pagoda (พระมหาธาตุแก่นนคร) Address: CR5M+7M4, ซอย, วัดหนองแวง, Mueang Khon Kaen District, Khon Kaen 40000

Mr. Tree's Cafe, Khon Kaen.

The cafe has been open for a long time but it's very quiet. It's owned by Mr. Tree, the famous Line sticker creator. Located near Non Muang behind the university, it's not hard to find, you can pin it right away. The cafe is very cute and extremely shady. The owner is very kind, gives advice on every menu item, is very friendly, and always invites conversation while you're dining. I'm very impressed and I want the cafe to be more well-known. I want more people to come and eat, to sit and relax, it's chill. There's plenty of parking available. Come on over.

🌿 Refill Cafe in Khon Kaen city center

#Songkran2024TravelPlaces You must come to this shop when you come to Khon Kaen. I think the shop is beautifully designed. There are many corners and styles for taking beautiful photos, including various interesting coffee menus. Starting from the front of the shop, which looks like a solid concrete wall. When you walk in along the path and open the door, it feels like you are in another place. On the right is a long coffee bar for ordering various drinks. In the middle is a glass house with black trees, which is considered a place where everyone must come to take pictures. On the other side is also a place to sit, focusing on black tones. That's not all. There is another zone that is connected to the exit. This is a glass room surrounded by many green trees. Looking at it, it looks clean. And outside the shop is a small garden area where you can sit and relax. ☕️🍹 The drink menu focuses mainly on coffee. There are many types.

red and brew coffee ☕ A shop that is truly a specialty coffee shop in Khon Kaen 🤎 I won't say much, but the coffee is very good....the coffee beans are roasted and made by themselves, and the beans are carefully selected. It's really good, guys.✅ Address: The shop is located in the city, on the road in the city center. You can pin the GPS and find it, easy to find. ❤The atmosphere of the shop is like a slow bar. It's small, but there is a parking lot behind the shop, which is very convenient. The shop is decorated in red, white, and brown tones. Price: 50-60 up, very cheap for the taste and coffee beans. It's worth it.📍 😊If you come to Khon Kaen, coffee lovers must come. Don't miss it. This shop is number 1 in my heart. I'm not bragging.

Modern thai architecture temple

The Sukhothai period saw the construction of Wat Thung Setthi. The ruin stands outside the Si Satchanalai town wall, facing northeast, near the Ramnarong Gate. About two to three years ago, this temple underwent a magnificent restoration. The etchings on the glass windows are what distinguishes this temple. In the stain-glassed windows of the dome, not only Hindu deities like Shiva and Indra, but also fictional pop culture characters may be seen. Lilo and Stitch, Mickey Mouse, Doraemon, and even Darth Vader can be found etched into the glass. It is also famous for its Buddhist hell garden. This is where Buddhists go when they have terrible karma, according to folklore. It appears to be a typical old-style temple from the outside, but inside and in the windows, you will find a magnificent blend of ancient and new motives educating you about good and evil, as well as how to live a decent life. They used a lot of modern references to instruct people, from Disney to Star Wars. #scenicspotphotoguide#art#ancientarchitecture#historicculture#roadtrip#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Iconic Buddhist temple in Khon Kaen

The 9-storey Stupa, also known as Phra Mahathat Kaen Nakhon, is located in Wat Nong Waeng, a royal temple on Klang Mueang Road that houses Lord Buddha's relics and key Buddhist writings. The former reincarnations of the Lord Buddha, 16 classes of visible deities in the Brahmas realm, and Buddhist ceremonies are wonderfully carved on the doors and windows of the 9-story Stupa, while the history of the town is painted on the wall. Visitors can also enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of the city from the top floor, which houses the Lord Buddha's relics. #historicculture#hiking#ancientlandmark#cityoverlook#roadtrip#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer
