This radiating Buddha is 10 meters high !


With this new expedition, that lasted 20hrs overall, discover the second city of Thailand :
Chiang Mai (The Rose of the North).


At 600 km north of Bangkok, 2 million inhabitants live in the foothills,
in a broad green valley, conducive to an abundant and booming agriculture.




Mountains to the east peak at 1200 m, 
The winter residence of the King is situated at 1000 m.
The lowest temperature at the top is 5 ° !

This Buddha is 10 meters high.
Impressive as it is standing up !




It is to be said that Buddha can be presented in 12 different postures of meditation
 (sitting, standing up, crossed-leged, lying down ...).





More updates tomorrow, with new photos from the deep south, 800 km away from the latter !
