I love all sorts of unusual temples associated with, as with natural interesting, and with the work of man. Something like that, I already seen in Chiang Mai (Wat Umong Tunnel Temple), but there it was after all not a cave, but more tunnels built specifically for empty place. Wat Cha Am is located right in the mountain. Yes, he is not very big, and the cave is also quite small, but passing by, I advise look.
This area has several attractions about which I have already written: The mountain of bats, the Great Ushastik and Black Babischa. Therefore, you can not just go to one cave temple, and Immediately make a route for the whole day.
If you want to visit this place, you can stay in Hua Khine, for example, is a budget hotel where we stayed. how Option, search for other hotels in Hua Hin at this link.
But if you go from Hua Hin is not a hunt, but, on the contrary, you want spend time in Cha Am, you can search for a hotel at RoomGuru.
Cave Temple Wat Cha Am
The territory of the temple is not very big and in its center is a rock, that the one for which we came here, it is in it cave. Yes, of course, the main structure where the services are held is below, and it is rather a tribute to tradition. In the cave is located several old statues of Buddha, one of them is the Reclining Buddha subway six in length.
Immediately after entering Wat Cha Am
A staircase leads to the top, there is a cave the temple consists of a total of two caves. You can go back down like this same or the other. In fact, we pass this rock through, if not returning back. Beautiful views, real the mountain – all this pleases the eye. Frustrated only one thing – dogs! We could just be unlucky, but really barked, and almost rushed. And there is something too many of them, too. True, it was just downstairs, none of them climb the stairs wanted to. We went back, it started again. Good machine from the stairs were not far away, and the monks were limping at them as much as they were shouting so it’s not entirely clear if there was a real danger or not. Generally Polazili climbed on a rock, and the territory itself was not particularly looked, somehow not really wanted in a stunning bark is located. Hope this is private case, and the rest will be lucky much more.

Down on the other side
Another of the downsides, in the second cave there is a hole in the ceiling, and the question time how much this cave will stretch if it is not patched. And judging on the accumulation of loose stones, while no one is doing this. Although it may be so for a long time already, therefore no one is soared.
