After the rock, we drove a few kilometres down the road to a restaurant for lunch.
And then on to some ancient temples carved into the side of a mountain. There were 5 of them, next to each other, and of varying sizes.
They contained different sorts of Buddha statues and paintings and patterns on the walls and ceilings.
It was actually a very nice setting, and a nice place to visit.
After that we drove to the world famous golden Buddha, and then back to the resort.
That evening it began to rain. And rain. And rain. Followed by torrential rain. It will probably stop some time.
We didn’t do much the next day (the 26th) because it was raining too much all day. So we stayed mostly on the balcony, reading and playing.
