Thai Buddhist Temple

Wat Mongkolratanaram

Beautiful golden bird lanterns surround the temple


A large covered wooden building where much of the food is sold


A dock built out over the Palm River




A shrine perched in a tree


My first visit to a Buddhist temple near Tampa. Every Sunday they have a wonderful selection of food, plants, vegetables and other items. There are plenty of picnic tables under the trees by the river. Sometimes you see a monk in robes of yellow. It is a beautiful place and a beautiful experience. Here is a link to learn more.
