Millions of Buddhas

The small town of Hpa-An is nothing to write about, but what is worth writing about is the countryside around this village: dotted with temples, caves, rice paddy fields, and ​limestone mountains it is eye candy beyond belief. The first temple we explored on our all day motorbike ride was a temple perched on a limestone rock. The views were breathtaking and a good start to our day. 

Knowing this was only the first stop of many we pushed on to a stunning buddhist cave of an exiled king. I was floored when I saw it, not only was it something we had never seen before it was beautiful. Little intricate carvings 40 - 50 ft up of buddhas. Thousands, no millions of buddhas were on display. It was beautiful in a painstakingly holy crap that king had a lot of time on his hands way; not in a tacky pile as many buddhas as possible kind of way. ​
