Wat U Mong

Wat U-Mong Monk

For years, every trip I made to Chiang Mai included a planned visit to Wat U-Mong. And I never managed to fit it in to my schedule. Finally this last trip afforded me enough time to head over there and it was well worth the visit. The grounds of the wat are enormous. Set in a forest, with a lake, it is a beautiful and tranquil scene. The ‘wat’ part of the site is a series of tunnels built below a large stupa. Definitely different and incredibly picturesque. I quickly captured this shot as this monk appeared out of nowhere and swiftly made his way past me through one of the tunnels.
