Hidden in a cave near Phang Nga, and guarded by friendly monkeys, is Wat Tham Suwannakuha, home of a large reclining golden Buddha.
As we entered the cave and the darkness opened up before us, our eyes needed some time to adjust after the bright sunlight outside. Once they were adjusted, our gaze was drawn to a giant golden Buddha dominating one side of the cave. The golden statue, with the pitch black background, was like a bright light in this dark cave of Wat Tham Suwannakuha. After walking around the statue, we climbed the stairs behind it, where small shrines had been made, and we saw other Buddhas, much smaller than the main one lying quietly on the floor of the cave.
