Om
Hurtige fakta: Kæmpestore, levende farvede statuer smelter kinesiske motiver sammen med thailandsk ikonografi og står omkring en spejlblank sø, hvor bederum lyser i rødt og guld. At fodre koi ved pagodens kant er et praktisk ritual. Se hvordan dusinvis af fisk og skildpadder stimler sammen om pellets og mønter under flydende lotusblade.
Højdepunkter: En tårnhøj, 18-armet Guanyin i hvidt og guld synes at svæve over en lotusdam, armene arrangeret som en glorie, så statuen føles levende, når sollyset blinker hen over de forgyldte overflader. Besøgende krydser en malet rød bro for at kaste små mønter og blomster i vandet nedenunder. Den bløde klingelyd og blomsterduften gør aftensbesøg uventet filmiske.
Insidertips
- Wear modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees, bring a scarf for shrine areas.
- Bring small cash for donations, parking, and buying fruit to feed the koi and carp.
- Head to the lakeside platform for close-up shots of the 18-arm Guanyin and the large white laughing Buddha.
- Avoid midday when tour buses arrive; aim for 8–10am or 4–6pm for fewer people and softer light.
