That day felt like we slowed down a bit and saw Thailand from a completely different angle. The places are very powerful emotionally, especially the temple with Buddha’s footprint and the Mirror Temple — there’s a deep inner silence there. Lopburi with its monkeys is fun at first, and then you realize just how unusual this city really is. Nam Phu Monastery touched us the most — calm, peaceful, and deeply spiritual. After the tour, there was a strange feeling of clarity in my head — at least for me. How was it for you?
