wat pha lat

Wat Pha Lat is a beautiful Buddhist temple hidden in the dense jungle just outside of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. The temple, which was built in the 1300's, made for a lovely little nature getaway after spending a couple days in the city. The type of place that, upon entering, makes it almost impossible to not breathe a little slower and a little deeper. It's filled with vibrant and peaceful gardens, a gentle creek running down the mountain, and plenty of ancient and artistic statues to admire.
