One of the newest amazing places to visit in Thailand that you should check it out!!! That is Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao Rachanusorn (official name) "วัดเฉลิมพระเกียรติพระจอมเกล้าราชานุสรณ์" or Wat Phabatpuphadang or some people around there called Wat Phrabuddhabat or Wat Doi. The location is in Vichet Nakorn Sub-district, Chaehome District, Lampang province, Thailand or is on Doi Phu Yak. I am a Chaehomer. I have been to the temple several times since there was no temple or buildings yet. This temple started construction in 2004. The construction is still on going since then but most main buildings are finished. If you are interested in visiting the temple, the best way is by air. There are 2 airlines: Bangkok Airways and Nok Air. T rains and/or buses are available as alternative travel.  After landing in Lampang you should take a dark blue shuttle truck from the airport to  Chaehom bus station which is near Seree mall.  From here take a bus...

During a sunny day, I wanted to find some cool post cards to send to my little monsters in the US and a friend in EU. And I wanted to take a look to a birthday gift. Then I got an idea to stop by the Indra Ceramic or Indra outlet. Indra outlet is a shop selling many type ceramics.  You can buy the best ceramics here. The shop is not far from Lampang downtown, Thailand. But if you ask how to get there, I would say "many ways" :) well, it's located on Vajiravudh Damnoen Road. or more information right  here! . How to get to Lampang? you might take a bus or a train or an air plane or drive a car :) For me, I drove a car to get here. Now I'm here and tired. Let me take a seat with a cute chair then get a cup of ice-tea and write this blog to s...
