Kwan Phayao, one of the wonderful largest freshwater lakes in Thailand

in #travel18 days ago

Kwan Phayao is situated in Phayao province, in the North of Thailand. It’s the 1st largest freshwater lake in the northern part and the 4th largest freshwater lake in Thailand.

The surrounding scenery is beautiful; i.e. there are small and large mountains in the background of the lake.

There is a public park where people from both the province and other provinces come to relax; take a walk, enjoy the view, ride a bicycle, or jog.

There is a charming road beside the Kwan Phayao decorated with various kinds of gorgeous flowers.

Apart from the flower garden, the lake also has other beautiful decorations.

The most popular highlight is the two awesome Naga statues facing each other and the golden chedi staying in the middle of the water.

On the opposite side of Kwan Phayao, there is a monument of Pho Khun Ngam Mueang who was the great king of this province in the past.

Will show you more photos of Kwan Phayao in my next post.

P.s. I used to post about Kwan Phayao a very long time ago, these photos are from a new trip.

I wish my country had this much tradition build in the culture but I guess its not as old as Thailand, modern era just took over and we do have similar places but its the surroundings, the statues, the culture that make it special as in your pictures, awesome post ✌️😎
