The World's First Temple Wrapped in Dragons, Low-Key and Mysterious, Refusing to Become a Tourist Attraction
As descendants of the Yanhuang, we have been called 'the descendants of the dragon' since ancient times. The dragon is a symbol of identity in China, a symbol of the emperor, and even appears in many Chinese film and television works. However, we all know that dragons only exist in ancient legends, and no one has ever seen a dragon in reality. We all think dragons are a Chinese specialty, but there is a mysterious and majestic temple in the world that is wrapped in giant dragons, but it is not in China.
This temple is located 40 kilometers west of Sampran district, Thailand. This temple is very mysterious and rarely known to people. It is not found on maps or travel guides. Many Thai tourists who have been to Thailand do not know this building. Only well-known guides will reveal this place. This building has a magnificent and unique appearance, with a pink exterior wall wrapped by a giant dragon from top to bottom, with the dragon's head precisely built at the top of the temple, giving a strong sense of impact, as if a giant dragon is tightly guarding it.
According to local guides, the history of the construction of this temple is very mysterious and still unknown. People gave it a simple and easy-to-remember name 'Dragon Temple'. However, its unique appearance is more eye-catching, making people more curious and eager to explore. This temple has 17 floors, and only the 1st and 2nd floors are open to the public. The monks practice here on the floors above. The temple is quiet and remote, which is a good place for practice.
It is said that the interior of this temple is hollowed out, with a staircase for monks to enter and exit, but the staircase has not been maintained for many years and is slightly damaged, which makes people feel very dangerous. However, because no tourists have been to the floors above, no one has truly seen the full appearance of the interior, everything is only hearsay and speculation. Many monks who practice here say that the purpose of building the temple here is to be more quiet and remote. But every day there are tourists coming to visit them, which has a certain influence on their practice. But over time, they have also become accustomed to it, hoping that tourists can be more respectful and not make too much noise.
If we go to this place, while admiring this mysterious building, please remember to keep quiet and provide a more suitable environment for the monks to practice meditation, and give them more respect. It cannot be said that seeing this temple wrapped in giant dragons, the inner heart will have a great impact and shock. If you go to Thailand, do you want to go and see it?
