More Flower Festival


Here's my last post from the Chiang Mai flower festival. Enjoy...

The temple they build for the festival as a monument to the 60th anniversary of the Reigning monarch - King Phumipon

Murals adorn the walls. Each of them depicts a scene with the king. He is well loved because of all his work with the farmers and "lay" people of Thailand.

(no real tulips! For some reason all the Thais I've talked to are dying to see tulips...)
