Beautiful Tham Phu Wa Cave Temple - Kanchantaburi Thailand

Not just another temple. Tham Phu Wa Temple is about 25 km outside of Kanchantaburi and situated in some hills to the west. When you first come to the temple you are greeted with manicured gardens. The next thing you see is a brown reclining Buddha and a large seated Buddha made from the same stone. The ordination hall and Wihan also have the brown stone with Cambodian styling to the buildings.

These buildings and statues are fairly recent additions to the temple. After admiring them for a little while the main attraction to the temple is behind the ordination hall in a very large cave. The cave was the original temple and was used for meditation by worshipers. It houses a 100 year old Buddha statue, many relics that have been brought into the area from Myanmar as well as interesting rock formations inside the cave.

The temple is a very nice place to visit, for Thais as well as tourists. The architecture and location make this something that should be on anyones list while in Kanchantaburi.
