Dragon Temple

in #travel9 years ago

    I was surprised to see the building for the first time, too.

      Wat Sampran Dragon Temple is located in the Sampran District of Nakorn Pathom Province in Thailand Province, about 40 kilometers west of Bangkok. The reason why the temple domineering, because the 17 - story building, the exterior was surrounded by a dragon.

    The Dragon Temple is a 17 story tall pink tower surrounded by huge dragons. The dragon's scales are green, with a layer of gold bars wrapped around it and a shade of greenery under the temple. The dragon is a symbol of the fin and tail go in the right direction, and Talon seize buildings, is a symbol of danger protection.

  The dragon's body is hollow, but it is actually a staircase that can climb to the top through its body.

  Dragon Temple on the ground a total of 16 layers, only 1-2 floors for visitors, the 3-16 floor is dedicated to monks, and no one is allowed to enter.

     Pink represents wealth in China, while Thais believe pink represents sacrifice and solidarity. So far, it has been a mystery when the temple was built and who built it.

        

     Do you feel overbearing?I really want to see the Dragon Temple with my own eyes.
