Hidden in the rich agricultural region north of Chantaburi is the temple of Wat Khao Sukim, nteresting mostly because of its setting and function as a museum.
He first took me to the roof, which I had wanted to leave for last. The view from all sides of the roof was truly excellent - even a waterfall was visible in the deeply green hilly distance. On the roof, there were smaller rooms with all kinds of artefacts, and the monk proudly showed me his favourite hall. He begged me to sit down on the floor and before I knew it, he was showing me how to bend forward with my hands on the floor and my head on the top of my hands. When we got down again, I had another look at the enormous hall before walking down to the lake again.
