Located in north-central Thailand, Wat Pha Sorn Kaew sees a number of Thai tourists but is virtually unknown to most foreign travelers.  There are two big draws here- the five sitting Buddhas, and the fantastic temple, which is covered in nearly five million mosaic tiles.  Perched on an 830 meter high peak, it offers commanding views of its surroundings.  The mountainous terrain and cooler climate have led many to call this area the "Little Switzerland of Thailand."

Central Khon Kaen
A charming boutique hotel in Khon Kaen, Thailand. It is situated in the city center, but set off the road enough that you do not get noise from the street traffic. It's very serene and the spacious balconies are a great place to relax. Good breakfast buffet too!

Nai Muenang
Wat Nong Wang, the tallest temple in E-san, overlooks Bung Kaenakorn, a sizable lake and surrounding park. Visitors to the temple may climb to the 9th floor to observe the bustle of the city or to pray. The way to the top winds past historic offerings and moralistic murals as well as the personal effects of important monks. The view is worth the climb but if you're tall, watch your head.
