The Adventures of Kerri & Matt

At the museum in Sukhothai we got to experience the Mystic Tunnel Like Stairway Corridor.

Actually a recreation of the Mystic Tunnel Like Stairway Corridor, which was actually in a wat somewhere.

With pictures of the stone carvings and the view out of the temple mounted on the white painted walls.

It was considerably less exciting than it sounded.

They also had some ancient carvings from the temples in the area, including this nail biting daemon.

And an ancient toilet-hole covering.

And some 15th century water pipes.

We were pretty watted out by this point, but we decided we should see at least some Thai wats. So we stopped at their most impressive site in Sukhothai.

This is Wat Mai, a huge assembly hall.

This is a statue of some guy other than Buddha.

It was the only one.

All other statues are Buddhas.

Here is Matt with a Buddha.

Here is a walking Buddha. They don’t have those in Myanmar. They only have sitting, standing and lying.

This is Wat Tra Kuan. It is a wat.

This is Wat Si Sawai. It is also a wat.

It had carvings on the corners.

Most wats do.

It also had a deep well.

Hey, look! More Buddhas!

Here’s a less lazy Buddha.
