🐯 Singburi...a small city with big hearts, renowned for its heroes and food!
If Singburi were a person, it would be the friend who'd take you to pay respects to the Buddha in the morning and then end the trip with a meal of grilled snakehead fish (Mae La) without even asking! This province is a brave place with charm hidden in every corner. Temples, retro markets, museums, and local food make your heart beat like when you see a promotion for 10 free boiled eggs!
🛕 1. Wat Phikun Thong
"The Great Buddha stands tall without high heels!" Thailand's largest Buddha statue, bestowing blessings visible from the front of the temple—a must-see for those seeking merit. And don't forget to feed the fish in the pond next to the temple—it's a truly wonderful experience.
🛕 2. Wat Phra Non Chaksi Worawihan
"A reclining Buddha so long you have to walk along it to make a wish, piece by piece!" This Sukhothai-style reclining Buddha is 47 meters long, making it the third largest in Thailand. Those whose wishes come true must return to fulfill their vows with boiled eggs, a pig's head, or a full-on bai si offering.
🎭 3. Ban Rachan Retro Thai Market
"A market where vendors dress in traditional Thai costumes that make you think you're in a Channel 7 drama!" Relax, eat traditional snacks, watch local performances, and take photos on the wooden bridge. Vintage lovers, don't forget to strike a pose holding a water bowl like a lady of Bang Rachan.
