Pra Buddha Dīpankara

I consider myself a follower of this sacred place. I’d like to share a few thoughts in response to what others have mentioned: 1. The journey there is not an easy one — the road is indeed rough — but taking the time to visit is truly worth it. The peace and beauty of the place make the effort worthwhile. 2. The temple needs care and maintenance, which naturally requires funds. In most cases, the government does not support temples, especially those in remote areas. Buddhism is, after all, a people’s religion, sustained by the faith and generosity of its followers. 3. So when a monk humbly asks for donations, please understand that it is often for much-needed upkeep and preservation of the temple.

You can access this temple on a simple scooter (at least in the dry season - my experience). I rode a Honda click 125 without pillion passenger. More than enough power and less weight which is good. Wouldn’t recommend if it’s your first time driving a scooter. Also plan a couple of short stops on the way down to let the brakes cool (and you can take in the views). You wouldn’t want the brakes to fade at the wrong moment

A great drive up in the 4x4. The road is sketchy at best but fun nevertheless. The views are worth it alone. After that standard temple with various statues and a few torist shops.
