Trip Moments Recommendations
Wat Paknam Khaem Nu, the blue chapel in Chanthaburi.
It can be called the Unseen highlight of the temple, being the most beautiful. The chapel itself emphasizes the blue tone contrasted with white, making it strikingly prominent. You can come to worship and also take beautiful pictures. Inside the chapel, people commonly come to worship the Buddha and lift the Buddha statue to predict blessings. The surrounding area is peaceful and cool, not crowded at all. If you're traveling along the Tha Mai route to Laem Sing, don't forget to stop by.

Importance/Characteristics
This temple was built during the Ayutthaya period. King Taksin gathered forces in Trat. There is a pagoda over 300 years old currently being restored by the Fine Arts Department. Wat Lamduan is located on the Trat-Laem Ngop route. It is an ancient temple with historical traces from the pagoda that the Fine Arts Department has examined and found to be over 300 years old. It is believed that this temple has been in existence since the Ayutthaya Kingdom, according to archaeological evidence. It is known to have been a military camp of King Taksin, where he gathered and trained troops to retake Ayutthaya from the Burmese. Standing on the ground where the pagoda over 300 years old is located, one can see the entire city of Trat, which is likely the reason King Taksin chose this location for his camp.
Atmosphere: Peaceful, shady, with a very beautiful view
Longshan Temple
No matter if you're traveling domestically or internationally, you always have to visit temples to pray for good fortune. Longshan Temple is one of the ancient temples in Taiwan that you must visit. It's always so crowded!
It's a famous place for praying for a partner. Whatever type of partner you wish for, just pray for it. And there are also many amulets...
FYI:
- The Old Moon God is at pot number 7. The sign is where many people are praying...
- When making a wish, don't forget to specify details about yourself and importantly, your preferences.
- Don't forget to pray for a red thread from the deity.
- Toss the red half-moon shaped wood, one side up and one side down, three times to receive the red thread.
- Pick up one red thread and walk around the incense pot three times.
- Pray again (deja vu) in front of the shrine, then put the red thread in your wallet, and you're done.
** Just in case, it's recommended to buy a love amulet to carry with you **
The most beautiful temple view in Bangkok.
Wat Saket, or the Temple of the Golden Mount (temple of the Golden Mount Bangkok), is an ancient temple from the Ayutthaya period, located along the Mahanak Canal in the Pom Prap Sattru Phai district.
