Khao Phansa

These are a few pictures from Khao Phansa at the Wat Pra Sinhg which is one of the oldest and most revered temples in Chiang Mai. You can see the people kneeling in line and waiting to offer some food gifts to a monk. I also love this old woman who is preparing flower bouquets to put on the altar. I think the white chedi is very beautiful especially when wrapped in the ceremonial orange/yellow robes. It looks like a cake! The last picture is detail of a carving on a wooden door. The building was quite old and the style was heavily influenced by Burmese culture.
