Generated avatar for Валерия

We set off in the morning without any big expectations, and in the end the day turned out to be rich and deeply spiritual. Temples, nature, and animals all came together in one trip, so there was never a dull moment. The climb up to the Buddha’s footprint wasn’t easy at first, but the view from the top is absolutely worth every step. Viharn Sien surprised us with its scale and exhibitions - we didn’t expect such a high level. By evening there was a pleasant tiredness and a clear feeling that we had seen the real Thailand.
