The journey to Chachoengsao province for "Pencil wants to write" this time, we chose to travel by train. It is a short train line from Bangkok to Chachoengsao. The train slowly moved out of Bangkok station around 7 am and brought "Pencil wants to write" and friends to Chachoengsao at 9 am.

Upon disembarking from the train, Din boarded a yellow shared taxi to reach the "Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan" temple. This temple houses the revered "Luang Pho Sothon" Buddha statue, a sacred icon deeply respected by the people of Chachoengsao and devotees from across Thailand. It is no surprise that on weekends, the temple bustles with a multitude of Thai and international tourists, all united by their faith and seeking blessings from Luang Pho Sothon.

After paying respects to the Buddha and making merit, "ดินสอขอเขียน" took the opportunity to admire the beauty of the new ordination hall of this temple. The hall is truly magnificent and awe-inspiring. It is a pity that the sky was cloudy today, so the photos I took are not as beautiful as I had hoped. However, it is still a worthwhile experience.

We then took a blue songthaew to the police station and transferred to a white songthaew with a yellow stripe to travel to the "Chinese Temple Club" or "Leng Hok Yi Temple", a famous Chinese temple in the province. It is believed that this temple is one of the 3 temples that make up the dragon. The dragon's head is at Leng Noei Yi Temple in Bangkok, the dragon's tail is at Leng Hua Yi Temple in Chanthaburi, and the dragon's belly is at Leng Hok Yi Temple.

This temple houses a multitude of Chinese deities, including four colossal statues of the Four Heavenly Kings, the God of Fortune (Cai Shen Ye), the Tang Monk (Tang Sanzang), and the Goddess of Mercy (Guan Yin), offering visitors ample opportunities to pay respects and seek blessings.

We then crossed the street to the "Baan Mai Market," an ancient market that still retains its original architectural style of wooden shophouses lining both sides. The market offers a variety of local delicacies, including crab Rangoon, tau sar piah, crispy rice pancakes, grilled bananas, and maprang plums. Shoppers can also find a wide range of goods along the way.

The highlight is definitely "Auntie Nu's Restaurant", a riverside restaurant on the Bang Pakong River with famous dishes such as sea bass with fish sauce, tom yum goong, and soft-shell crab stir-fried with black pepper. "ดินสอขอเขียน" has tried every dish and can only say that "it's delicious."

After a satisfying meal, we boarded a boat and sailed down the Bang Pakong River to "Wat Saman Rattanaram." As the boat approached the temple, we were greeted by the sight of large pink lotus flowers blooming along the riverbank, followed by a massive pink Ganesha statue. Next came a statue of Guan Yin, and finally, Brahma. This temple is home to a diverse array of deities, all of which are incredibly large and impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed taking photos and paying my respects to Ganesha and the other deities. This concluded our "3 Temples and 1 Market" trip perfectly. Until our next adventure together!
