Wat Srisuphan and The Silver Ordination Hall ♥ ♥

 

This is Wat Srisuphan

 

It has nice red and gold ceiling works inside

 

And a very intense adult shaolin taking photos of the interiors

 

BUT we have come here not for this, but for the Ordination Hall.

 

IT’S SILVERRRRR

 

Built over 500 years ago, this 5-meter wide and 17.5-meter long structure in pure Lanna architecture will be the first ever silver ordination hall in the whole wide world.

 

It is still a work in progress. The whole building will be decorated in
pure silver, compound silver, and aluminum.

 

Check out the floor carvings. This will be covered in silver, too.

 

Aluminum coin pots

 

Intricate details

 

Unfinished silver business

 

Each piece is handmade by experienced silverware crafters

 

Patience

 

Dedication

 

Too bad females are not allowed in the hall.

 

So I just wait outside and admire this pretty silver sign.
