Cho, it is beautiful. I wished The Nation Weblog had the ability to post images greater than 25K of memory. I would post the pictures of my "soon-to-be" hometown of Chaingrai. THere is a "white" temple there. I love it. It is beautiful too.

I went there again today.

I walked through the gate, again, FREE.

I asked the guard why it's free, and he said the admission fee is for those who wants to actually enter the palace building. For those who just want to walk around the outside, it's free.

No wonder...

But still, nice. It's nice to be able to spend time in nice place like that.... especially the good weather these days.

In side the palace, it's very quiet. Actually they have high quality speakers through out the premises, playing easy-listening tunes. Not bad, but sometimes a bit annoying. But when it gets annoying, just walk a bit and you can find the quiet spot where the speakers can't reach.

There are trees... bush... flowers... grass... canal... bridges... buildings... old buildings...

And I can do a bit of quiet thinking in there. Very peaceful.

On the way out, I saw a German complaining to his Thai wife about him having to pay 20 Baht more than his wife.

VERY loudly.

Wasn't very nice.

It's the 'Sanam Chan Palace' at Nakornpathom.

The entrance fee is 50B for farangs, 30 B for Thais, and free for me.

Yup. Free for me.

I don't know why. The guard just smiled and let me in. I asked if I had to buy the ticket, and he said no, just go ahead.

I thanked him of course.

So there you have it folks. For all the crap about 'double pricing' and stuff, you get to go in for FREE every once in awhile.

Not bad. Not bad at all.
