I have often wondered why so many visitors are drawn to the Wat Rong Khun and why it has become a major topic of conversation around town. I recently made a visit to this spectacular temple initiated by one of Thailand's famous artists, Chalermchai Kositpipat, who has devoted his life for this mega art project in honour of His Majesty the King.

On March 28, our Muantae team boarded the 9.20 a.m. Chiang Mai - Nakornsawan ordinary train to Lampang, a charming small and historical town located just 100 kilometers southeast of Chiang Mai. Four third class non air-conditioned coaches made up the entire convoy. A one-way ticket costs us 23 baht. It turned out that we stopped at every little train station on the way and the seemingly short distance took three long dusty, hot and muggy hours. The monotony was broken up by watching the extremely arid and burnt out countryside passing by outside and at the variety of the other passengers which were mostly Thai families on vacation, the usual assortment of foreign back-packers, and vendors peddling their never boring mixtures of local foods.

Of the 108 Miracles to be discovered at The Royal Flora Ratchaphruek, one of the most popular and visited attractions, since the opening day on 1 November, 2006, is undeniably the Orchid Pavilion. It is the first time that Thailand has organized an orchid exhibition of this magnitude as well as holding weekly orchid competitions using international standards.

Our one hour and a half drive up to the Inthanon Royal Project Research Station was very scenic with the breathtaking views of the lower areas often interrupted by the constant low hanging clouds and fogs. The higher we went, the tortuous and winding road became very challenging, but it was comforting to be in a 4-wheel SUV competently driven by our art director.
