Khaoyoi Cave Temple - ถ้ำเขาย้อย

here we are, at Khaoyoi Cave Temple - ถ้ำเขาย้อย, something totally different to the other temples I visited during my 9 temples tour around Bangkok.
Khaoyoi Cave Temple - ถ้ำเขาย้อย is built in a mountain in a natural cave, it's really unbelievable!
I've seen many places in my life, but Khaoyoi Cave Temple - ถ้ำเขาย้อย is for sure one of the most impressive places. From outside it looks impressive already, but when you walk inside, you think you step into another world!
Follow the pictures and you will see what I mean....

สถานที่ธรรมชาติที่ภายในเป็นที่ประดิษฐานของพระพุทธรูปใหญ่น้อยหลายปาง โดยมีพระพุทธไสยาสน์เป็นพระประธาน ด้านหลังพระพุทธไสยาสน์มีพระพุทธบาทประดิษฐานอยู่ในมณฑปสวยงาม อีกทั้งยังมีรูปปั้นพระเจ้าอู่ทอง รูปปั้นพญานาค อยู่บริเวณผนังถ้ำด้วย นอกจากนี้ถ้ำเขาย้อยยังเคยเป็นถ้ำที่พระบาทสมเด็จพระจอมเกล้าเจ้าอยู่หัว (รัชกาลที่ 4) มาปักกลดวิปัสนาเมื่อครั้งพระองค์ผนวชด้วย ที่ตั้ง อ.เขาย้อย จ.เพชรบุรี เปิด ทุกวันตั้งแต่เวลา 07.00 – 17.00 น.
ค่าเข้าชม ฟรี การเดินทาง ใช้เส้นทางพระราม 2 เมื่อถึงแยกทางต่างระดับวังมะนาวเลี้ยวซ้ายไปทางจังหวัดเพชรบุรี ประมาณ 12 กิโลเมตรจะเจอแยกเขาย้อย (เห็นเขาย้อยอยู่ทางซ้ายมือ) เลี้ยวซ้ายเข้าไปประมาณ 1 กิโลเมตรผ่านวัดเขาย้อยก็จะเจอทางขึ้นถ้ำเขาย้อย

On a stairway (it seems like to heaven) you can walk up to the top of the cave and you come to daylight again...

On the top there are some bells, with a wood you can ring them, Thais say it brings luck to you.

Such a wonderful temple in a mountain. Are those buddha statues plated with gold? Or they are made of the pure copper? So brilliant!

They are painted with a special gold color and some of them get covered over and over with leaf gold from the people who pray to them.
