Lion yeah wow you guys are so talented what’s up everybody welcome back to another beautiful day  here in Thailand now today I’m I’m actually talking to you guys from pataya a city that  is located about 2 hours south of Bangkok on a good day without traffic and one of my favorite Â
Places in the country now right now I’m actually standing right outside the terminal 21 Mall here  in pataya and let me just tell you guys this place is incredible they have an amazing food  court um great place to hide from the rain it was actually raining about an hour ago but very light Â
Drizzle however right now the rainy season in Thailand has really gotten the best of us it’s  been pouring pretty much every single day since we’ve arrived um so it is what it is we’re still  trying to make the most out of it and today we’re actually going to head off to check Â
Out the sanctuary of Truth which is a temple SL Museum that has been currently um being built for  over 40 years now I believe construction started in 1981 it is still not complete but even after Â
The many times that I visited pataya I have still never made it there so that’s the goal for today  glattus is with me hello h hello and so is Andrew what’s up guys are you guys excited to go and see Â
The sanctuary of truth that’s amazing I want to go now you actually saw it what 3 months ago when  we were here yes and I love it it’s very it’s stunning it’s stunning and she’s been telling Â
Me ever since we left um to be to be completely honest with you guys she had went about 4 days  prior to us leaving pataya that last trip and the entire week she kept telling me Chris you have to Â
Go you have to go you have to go today so today four or 3 months later we’re finally making that  happen all right let’s cross on over and check what the price of a moto taxi is to get on down Â
That way obviously we can take the bot bus or even a grab and it’s still going to be cheaper but part  of the adventure is getting to the destination so let’s see what prices we can get down there
For CRA uh sanctuary of truth how much one one uh three three three bikes 100  100 100 yeah three bik three bik okay um let me check the grab okay grab says  81 for the whole car I think that is too expensive okay you do 80 80 80 80 80 by 80
B look here standard here oh it’s a standard yeah yes okay let’s do it let’s do it let’s do  it all three of us cool cool cool okay awesome to be fair Moto taxi is always more expensive Â
All right down here down here are the bikes all right from the traffic exactly It Gets  You Through the traffic gets you to locations fast let’s see if we can actually get on down  there oh excuse me first things first um first can I pay excuse me can I pay 1,000 all three Â
I don’t have change 1,000 for all three I got to make sure we get this out the way first cuz  sometimes it’s hard to get change oh yeah this man’s balling we’re good K crap all right oh Â
The lady’s going that way all right see you guys there all right time to moto taxi through Paya k c so yeah the sanctuary of Truth definitely one of the best or most popular tourist  attractions here in the city but usually when I come to pataya we’re here to work Â
So I never really have time to make it on down there pataya is the city that I choose  to come to when I just got a lot of work to do on the computer and every once in a while Â
I’ll film a few videos here in the city but uh never too many however this time  around this next week and a half that we have here In Paya I plan on filming so much for you Â
Guys to show you you know a lot more that I haven’t covered in Pre in previous videos  and of course plenty of nightlife videos on the way because I know how much you guys love those so yeah these streets are super beautiful and it doesn’t matter which part of Paya you’re Â
In there’s always so much going on here you find a lot of massage par parlors a lot of good food  restaurants and a lot of like real bougie restaurants as well things can get pretty  expensive quite fast I’m also noticing that every time I Step Back In Paya there’s more Â
And more Indian restaurants popping up I don’t know how so many people just eat Indian food  when they come to Thailand especially when you know you could be eating that amazing oh  this is the space very expensive hotel I actually went up there for a massage treatment few months Â
Ago we went up there for an onent at a spot called let’s relax and to be honest with you  guys it was a very great experience but very expensive um hotel to stay at it’s about $350  a night which for Thailand is crazy expensive and for anywhere in the world in general that’s Â
A lot of money so uh I didn’t stay there I just did a massage in the onon and I believe  it came out to like $21 an absolute deal all right well it doesn’t look like there’s much Â
Traffic going on wow this Tesla is beautiful you know where I live it’s super common to see  the Teslas rolling around everywhere but here in Thailand I only see a few on the  streets and that could be because there’s not many like Tesla Chargers or charging stations
Everywhere got to love yourself a nice grab delivery driver they always save  the day or I should say the nights when you’re hungry they always come through clutch The only positive to being in Thailand during rainy season is that there’s a lot less people Â
And well there’s actually quite a few positive there’s a lot less people um you obviously get to  enjoy the wonderful things that Thailand has to offer like the foods the massages all the great  shopping centers interacting with the people especially when it starts pouring and you just Â
Sit down at the closest like food stall that’s on the street to hide out from the rain there’s  a lot of birds but one of them is obviously that uh the streets are a lot more calmer than there Â
Are than they are when it is pink season so hopefully sanctuary of Truth is that same way  because literally people come all the way down to Paya just on day trips from Bangkok to see this Sanctuary now these little streets here remind me a lot of Bangkok once you get off the main Â
Uh Beach Road area the city starts to reminding me a lot more of Bangkok you get a lot more of a  of a city feel compared to like you know the beach Life Field which I feel like a Â
Lot of people come to Paya looking for well you know what I’m not going to bore you guys  too much longer with a a motorcycle ride I feel like we’ve done a lot of these this  series here in Thailand because it’s it’s one of my favorite ways to get around and I’ll see Â
You guys once we make it to the sanctuary of Truth we should only be about yeah 7 8  minutes away by now it was only a 12-minute moto taxi ride so I’m not sure exactly how Â
Far in we are at the moments but we should be there very shortly look at how many 7vs  there are in Thailand this is what’s impressive there’s one here on this corner and then there’s  one literally right across the streets and I can see a few more straight up ahead as well
Oops oh man I love this country so much I hope to one day be able to live here fulltime I mean  I could nowadays however as far as like my goals and what I have planned for the channel I just Â
Don’t see it happening just yet but it will it will happen in the future absolutely this is the  only country I could honestly see myself living in outside of the US anywhere in the world I think Â
It’d be between Thailand and Mexico two countries that I just love so much and a large majority has  a large majority for those reasons is because of the street food scene I love street food I love Â
Just being able to walk outside and run into a nightlife scene anywhere any time of day uh  or any time of year I should say and I just love navigating around on public transportation I mean Â
My dream is to live in a huge City to be honest I love cities so I want to live in a huge City  and just not own a car be able to just get around on Moto taxis public transportation buses that’s Â
Honestly like the best best feeling all right well enough small talk see you guys at the sanctuary of Truth sanctuary of Truth wow thank you I’ve never been here before so yeah this isn’t exactly what Â
I was expecting the entrance to look like but it is beautiful super stunning all right time for us  to come on in and yeah there’s definitely a lot of uh tourists here a lot of tour buses pulling Â
On in I can see the signs for the ticket agent entrance and the kitchen which is Straight Ahead  K thank you thank you guys all right we made it he and it does feel a little fresh here because Â
Of all the trees how was the Moto taxi ride good yeah that was smooth that was smooth huh if you  guys are wondering why Andrew is like a little a little off this morning is because that boy Â
Has been inj that that Tha Greenies he’s been he’s been eating his vegetables for morning for  breakfast huh breakfast lunch to dinner oh man too much but yeah these here are the admission prices  guys look 500 bought for Ault 250 for children then they also have a night entry fee which is Â
Only on Friday Saturdays after 5:00 p.m. for 750 bought for adults 350 for children wow they have  elephant riding here don’t do this they also have horse riding here but you know what who Â

Because it’s still under construction that’s what I was reading online and I had no idea that that’s  also included in the cost so that’s good to know and right now I guess first things first we’re Â
Going to walk up to the Viewpoint where we can see the sanctuary and then our tour will start  in about 20 minutes which is perfect because that gives us time to take all the beautiful pictures Â
That glattus wasn’t able to get last time she was here so we’ll make that happen as well but  yeah look here are the horses and to be honest you can say what you want but these horses look super Â
Beautiful and they look very well uh maintained like they definitely take a lot of pride in their  horses so not bad you know a great place to bring all the kids and have a full day of activities Â
H swipe my crop I just told the horse that she’s beautiful hopefully she understood me because she  is so beautiful wow they are gorgeous huh horses are just lovely animals all right well let’s get Â
Over to the Viewpoint and please do let me know along the way how do you guys feel about this  video would you guys like to show me or would you like me to show you more temples around Thailand Â
As we explore them glattus and I were always on the hunt for new temples that we haven’t seen  before and we always go out and see them but we don’t often times record them because well Â
To be quite honest with you guys a lot of people when I post a video about something historical or  something like important people don’t care about the video it never gets any views you guys want to Â
See the the nighti and the crazy videos which is fun but I like to share both what is here a little  Pond oh it looks like they got like a little high Ropes Course that’s cool maybe another Â
Little project that they’re working on right now fun it looks fun huh I would do that if it  was open right now in this Sanctuary it’s not only about the sanctuary but you can do activities all Â
Around you know it’s more like you can come here to spend a KN yeah I just noticed there’s a sign  over there it says mini Zoo yeah there’s some mini Zoo yeah wow yeah definitely very unique Â
Experience especially because well it’s quite cool under here there’s a lot of Green Space a lot of  trees so it really blocks out that heat quite well all right so we’re approaching the entrance  now it looks like there’s also a car park if you bring your own Vehicles actually the car park is Â
Probably um where we saw all EV ANS parked outside yeah this is staff parking only then straight  up ahead they have a Muslim prayer room so if you’re Muslim and you won’t have to worry about  missing your here prayer times there’s a there’s a special place for you guys here at the sanctuary Â
The kitchen and the entrance are this way but yeah to my surprise I’ve truly been blown away by how  many I’ve been seeing a lot of Russians here this trip huh haven’t you a lot of Russians and a lot Â
Of the menus and shops are all switched in Russian uh language I’m not sure if that’s the the time of  year for Russian tourists to come maybe it’s just absolutely freezing in Russia so everybody’s here Â
Now but usually I only see that in puket however this time around In Paya it is crazy full so it  looks like here’s a smoking area nice little place to lounge around and I can already see Â
The the sanctuary so let’s get on a little closer and enjoy it from the Viewpoint wow okay you know  what I’ve seen this on a lot of pictures but I have never been this close before and it is
Huge wow that’s a nice place to take a photo right let’s actually try to weave  around and get a nice view of this place wow that is impressive guys that is so beautiful okay you know what I’ve seen so many pictures of this place but it definitely Â
Doesn’t look as big in the photo as it as it is this is massive it’s huge tell you this is  impressive and look at the the the scaffolding people still working up there people look very Â
Little I don’t know if you guys can see them they’re right there in that tip and you know  what makes this Temple super special we’re going to learn a lot more about it obviously  as we go on but is that here there’s no nuts or bolts or screws that are used onto this Â
Temple it’s entirely made of wood and the wood pieces um are actually how it’s connected wow  this is beautiful here you can see the the way they put the the pieces to together yeah wow Â
Instead of using um screws this is what they use a lap joint tongue and groove these are for the roofs butterfly joints wow what are these some sort of rods connecting rods man this is awesome Â
Maybe wrong that a screw yeah these are nails too I’m not sure if this is for the display  though but you know what I think these are made out of wood they are they’re wood screw they’re Â
Wood nails like pieces of wood that’s crazy and this is what you can see on the top see in oh in every pillar so yeah on one side you got a man holding a Lotus represents the strong Â
Intention to be good over here you got a woman holding a book which represents learning the  truth and of life and the or from the past then you got another one that says a man with a child Â
And the Elder represents the generosity towards others man it’s awesome over here a woman with a  bird on the shoulder holding a rice Patty represents the peace can start within an  individual and then the highest point is um well a goddess on a horse and it says that the highest Â
Top is the goddess with goddess on a horse with a dove and a flower on her hand represents the  product of all four characters which is the life which is the life purpose and peace okay very cool Â
Isn’t it let’s get a little closer and get one more view wow that is gorgeous guys let me know  what you guys think of this so far I mean that view alone is is priceless it’s completely worth Â
Uh coming on out and exploring for a few hours I can see some horses running down there with  carriages as well I’m excited to dive on down there and get a little closer what a place and Â
The View with the sea behind is just amazing so the English tour has just started and now  we are making our way down the steps now um she basically just went over all of the rules right Â
Now in the beginning that I kind of told you about as we entered the museum and um basically  yeah you need to have clothing that covers your shoulders and your knees or else you will not be Â
Allowed to enter and if they are done renting well all of the stuff that you can borrow then  you’re going to be forced to actually have to Pur purchase some coverings for your shoulders and  your knees which tend to be quite expensive inside of the gift shop here oh wow this is
Beautiful look at the elephants to be honest this whole Adventure is just getting started but I already feel  like I’ve missed out on so much because well I’ve been to Paya so many times and this is Â
The first time I’ve actually made it down here to this point so I think down here is  where we’re going to be mounting our helmets I see a lot of ladies holding helmets hell  everyone good afternoon so please deserve your helmets because we have construction Â
Inside the museum can adjust our helmet CRA so we will just wait for the others and we  will go all together inside the museum hello s hello SAA okay please reserve your helmets  everyone and let’s proceed this way while waiting for the others this way
Feels like we chose a nice day to come here huh there’s no rain it will be rain there  will be rain later oh all right let’s keep that down then oh that looks like a nice place for a Â
Massage yeah so did we get an opportunity to do that after the tour we will have a lot of  walk to do okay awesome inside and outside okay please have a seat first everyone while waiting Â
For the others please have a seat wow those are the boats man that is gorgeous wow you can sit  there and get a nice little boat ride while drinking the Coconuts you know what I think Â
We’re doing that this trip we’re going to make sure we do that before we leave for Russian we  have a Russian tour 230 after the English for English theat ride that looks amazing we will  just wait for the others and we will go all together inside the museum all right is so
Everyone okay so everyone good afternoon and welcome to the sanctuary of trth Museum so my  name is Kim and I will be your English tour guide for today so our tour will take about  45 minutes to 1 hour but don’t worry because after the tour you can have your free time Â
Until 6:00 p.m. in the evening and I will do my very best to make it quicker so you  can have your free time earlier so by the way the reason why we’re wearing a helmet  is because our museum is under construction it is only for our safety purposes so follow Â
With me first until the very end of the tour I will just give you informations and directions  inside and outside the museum so let’s proceed on the workshop first this why everyone wow I’m excited and you know I’ve traveled all around the world and you guys Â
Can say what you want I’m not being an [ __ ] but I traveled around the world  I always pay for English speaking tour and the English is never very good but  here what her English is is Bomb it’s better than mine but yeah look at the boats we’re Â
Doing a boat ride so beautiful it is this is such a beautiful experience especially  coming here as a kid I can imagine would be so amazing okay please be careful with your steps everyone All right everyone is safe looks like that’s where they’re making all kinds  of flower arrangements and here’s the workshop on everyone okay let’s move here for a [Music] while wow yeah a lot of construction is going Â
On you got this man filing they’re doing some sanding over there a lot of woodwor okay so if  anyone of you wants to use the toilet you can use it first because inside the museum  we don’t have any toilet okay so everyone I know it’s a bit noisy and Dusty here but I’m Â
Sure it’s very difficult to witness a real traditional process like this so everyone  this part this is our cutting Department area so this is where they bring all the woods to  cut them and for form them into round shape or Circle form once it has been formed here Â
They will transfer it inside the carving Department area okay let’s move on this way so this is where so over in the on the left is where all the wood is  actually formed into the different pieces and here is where they do all Â
Of the carving and look at these pieces of of work that they have how amazing is that it’s quite impressive that all of this is done by hand imagine one mistake and it can be costly okay wow that is impressive this is our paring Department area so here you can Â
See how the wooden Carvers doing their work patiently you can also see here how  the museum has created piece by piece in terms of the design we already have the  original plan from from the owner himself okay let’s move on as well
Everyone okay so everyone on my left side you will see the biography of the  founder so in 1963 he built the ancient city museum in 1994 he built the aaan  museum Museum and in 1981 our very own sanctuary of th Museum was built and is Â
Still under construction until now okay let’s move on this way we can come closer everyone okay so everyone this is the original model of the museum which is made of entirely  wood so it has a scale of 1 to 10 1 cm here and 10 cm there which means the museum is 10 Â
Times bigger than this model so what we need to do here is we demonstrate here first all  the artwork before we conduct the real work so our museum is unique and different from other  places because we did not use any concrete Nails however later on inside you will see some part Â
That there are still some nails but that part is not yet done so they only use the nails to  fix the wood together but once the woods can hold on its own already they will remove the nails and Â
Replace it with a wooden joint technique that I will show you over here please come to the  front everyone this way wow that is impressive so this this model that’s sitting next to us if you  guys didn’t hear her clearly is 10 times smaller than the actual Sanctuary which is right next to
Us okay you know what let’s come over this way said once the wow guys look at this this is  amazing remil and the gentlemen that are all the way up there in the scaffolding they’re so high Â
Up and W W so our museum has over 170 poles and columns supporting its weight so we actually use  two to three pieces of woods like this and put a glue to hold them stronger and at the top is Â
The caring pole so this one won’t be moved while in our balcony and columns we this kind of food  and Joint technique and as you can see it has no nails and this is how we interlock them together Â
While in our walls we use the butterflying joint to attach two pieces of woods and put a glue to  hold them stronger but this one is only for the single if they want to add more they will use Â
The long Dove tail and what they do is they just keep adding more and more and at the back is the  decoration and the carving of it so this knowledge came from the ancient Tha Workers code Pasay which Â
Is pass on from generations to Generations so later on after the tour you can come back here  you can touch them so you know how they function you can also come back to the carving Department Â
Area and you’re allowed to do the carving as well but for now let’s proceed on our to room one this way okay this have one wow this is so beautiful it’s even more gigantic when you’re sitting at the base of Â
It wow okay please come closer this way okay so everyone as you can see our museum has different  colors so the fresh brown color is the new artwork the old color over there that is the  old artwork and and it has the effect from the rain sun and sea salt because we’re very Â
Close to the Sea the green part it is due to the chemical that we use to control termites  and insects so the structure of the museum was designed as chatura M four holes built by four  directions it is inspired by an ancient Royal Palace called fratin sfed Maha Prasad that’s Â
Why if you look at it it looks like a palace but everyone I want to remind you this is not  a temple I repeat this is not a temple this is a museum all the artworks here are inspired by Â
Many traditional cultures such as Indian Thai Chinese Cambodian and so on however even though  this is not a temple the reason why we ask some of you to cover is because we have a Buddhist Relic Â
Inside the museum it is only our way to show our respect okay let’s move on this way everyone let’s proceed wow that is amazing so I actually was under the confusion that this was a temple for Â
So long because of all the rules and stuff that I had seen online but that is because of all of  the um Buddhist relics that are inside and uh formations of all the other religions it’s just Â
To respect um the temple as a whole because as she mentioned this Temple is a it’s a safe house  for everyone everyone’s welcome here Chinese um what what Buddhists Catholics Muslims every  religion is welcome here it’s a tribute of Life yeah exactly and what they explained to Â
Us earlier everyone this part this is our exit point so this is where our tour will end later  on I repeat the exit Point not the entrance so by the way at the top as you can see so this Â
Is narashima Mantra and Daka so they symbolizes the victory of good over evil so they use their  power to remove any negative aspects in life so again again this is narashima Mantra and duraka  okay this everyone let’s see so as the lady was explaining in the entrance um the symbol Â
Of this Sanctuary is to symbol that symbolize that all humans can live together no matter  what religion or race you are and I think that is beautiful wow all of the details is just amazing  it’s very impressive I don’t think I’ve ever seen yeah something so gorgeous before in my
Life all right so everyone okay everyone you can come closer okay everyone still good still okay everyone start already okay so everyone the  museum is divided into three main parts so the roof that is five tier from lowest to highest the Â
Body which is composed of walls Windows vent and floors and the base which is divided into three  parts so the first one is the plain base because it has no decoration the second one is the singha Â
Leg or the lion leg and the third one is the Lotus base because it is inspired by a lotus flowers so  the gap between each base are all decorated as the Thai tradition cultures because the owner wants Â
To show to people that in the old days Ty people create cultures to connect the people to society  so in this part this is all Tha F place so in the past they used but they have in the nature to Â
Create games like here they use banana 3 to create fake hores here they use coconut shell to create  a game and this one is [ __ ] fighting while from here up to here this is all related ated Â
To the rice Farmers because in the old days most of Thai people are rice Farmers so from planting  the rice harvesting it and praying for the rain okay let’s move on this way everyone let’s proceed see these tours are super important to take because then you you you know you’re Â
Looking at everything but you don’t really know what you’re looking at and the way that  she’s describing everything is just extremely important and I would have never been able to  put two in two together just by looking at it I would have just been like oh wow Â
It’s impressive great architecture great design the artist was a mastermind but  once she tells you about all the different stories and why they’re there okay so by the  way everyone this part this is decorated as the ramayana epics story which is in every Â
Society we always have the good and the bad so here the monkey represents varana which is  the good one and the giant represents Aura which is the by okay let’s proceed this by everyone but yeah you can see all of the construction workers  logging around different pipes and plumbing right now it’s very
Impressive okay this way all right so everyone this is the sing habon balcon so it is inspired  by a royal balcony it is used to Grant a public audence in a special location and as you can see Â
It’s decorated with ban Nakata jar which inside has a branches of flowers and leaves and that  represents wealth happiness peace Beauty and creativity okay let’s move on this way everyone let me know what you guys think of this down in the comments section as well and let me know if Â
You guys are thoroughly enjoying this video because it’s more so a tour of the sanctuary  and although there is a lot of information that she’s giving us it’s quite impressive  information so it makes super nice to to listen to there everyone this way all right so before Â
We proceed I want to show you first this one so this is the only mechanical that we use in  the museum so it is only used to live physical handicap people pregnant woman or some Elders Â
Who cannot go up on the stairway so moving on over there at the top as you can see that  is the four faces of Brama which represents the four golden states of mind and that is  the loving kindness compassion sympathetic joy and Equanimity below the four faces of Brahma Â
Is the Indra riding aroan which is the three headed elephants and that represents the three  characteristic of a good leadership and that is avoid thinking saying and doing negative things  to the other people okay now we’re about to go up on the museum this way everyone
It’s quite impressive how many people are currently working  on the sanctuary as well I mean they have a lot of construction workers excuse me ma’am how many people are currently working on the construction  site well actually now there are 300 300 people yeah wow before they are 400 but because of the
All right this everyone so we also have a Brer over here with different  languages you can get one if you want so please go inside e turn right everyone go inside wow it’s awesome and the breeze that you get through  the windows is amazing but look at this guys look at the detail
It is gorgeous and you can tell that these um big figures are actually made out of one  solid piece of wood you can imagine like I mentioned earlier one mistake  and you know that whole piece of wood is damag okay everyone this way please go inside wow look at this
Everyone more inside everyone still good everyone still okay yes everyone still with me okay so  everyone inside the museum we will explore the seventh rot of life and this one is the first  one so who are we where we came from the first R of Life represents human equ that no matter how Â
Rich you are where you came from what religion you believe in we’re all the same and we’re all  compounded with four elements and that is the element of earth water fire and wind so we’re  all the solving of the same respect and treatment so the first one is the element of Earth which Â
Is the most solid comparing to other elements So Below you you will see forest and animals in our  body it could be our bone skin teeth and organ or any other solid in our body the next one is Â
The element of water so below you will see some waves in our body it could be our blood plasma  sweat tears or any other liquids that we have in our body the next one is the element of fire So Â
Below you will see the dragon breathing a fire in our body it could be your body temperature  and energy and lastly the element of wind so here you can see the moving of the cloth and Â
The trees in our body is our oxygen so these are the four elements that made us all humans  equal so again the first rot of life is all about human equality so now let’s proceed on the second Â
Thre of life don’t worry after DET tour you can always come back here to take photos and videos  again okay let’s move on this way everyone okay guys well I think I’m actually going to  put the camera down now and enjoy the rest of the tour without filming to really embrace all Â
The information but I mean look at this guys this here is the construction that’s going on hard at work man that’s a lot of hard work I wonder how they all learn these techniques because not just  your average construction worker could come and start building on something like this right all Â
Of this is new really when I came this was open only the balconies so all of this they put like  two months I wow within the last two months all of this has been created that is impressive well yeah Â
Actually I’ll show you guys a little bit more of the sanctuary then I’m going to put this down to  enjoy the rest of the tour um without filming you know I I I don’t know how you guys are holding up Â
Let me know if you guys are bored are you guys entertained I need to know the feedback from you  guys that way I and continue to U make videos like this but here we’re standing like right in Â
The center of the sanctuary right now or the museum and wow this is massive I mean those  walls are huge these pillars are just incredible so beautiful and you know you almost feel like a Â
Sense of you feel like a sense of Peace when you walk in here even though there’s a lot of tourists  like you can definitely um appreciate everything that’s that all the hard work and thoughts and  knowledge behind every specific design inside of here and it doesn’t matter which way you go Â
Now as you start learning bits and pieces from the tour guide you can kind of like put together  little stories as you’re looking at them even just using your imagination like here you got  the dragons more trees waves elephants it finished until the end from there to top they need to they Â
Still got to keep going huh wow okay well you know what guys um I’ll see you once we make it  outside of the museum maybe for the boat ride or uh what should we do first boat ride or foot Â
Massage boat ride boat ride all right we’ll see what the prices are for the boat ride and um we’ll  potentially go on a boat ride and then of course absolutely do a foot massage just finished up the Â
Tour of the museum and this place is incredible guys seriously a place you must visit now right  now I’m actually going to walk back into the carving and woodworking area to see if  I can actually get my hands on some some of the pieces of wood and maybe leave a little carving Â
Behind and of course give a tip to one of these hardworking individuals here at the Museum I mean  there’s so many of these people and they are so so talented I mean it takes a lot of work to be Â
Able to carve all of these pieces of wood into Perfection so our tour guide actually told us if  we went inside that they would be more than happy to let us um leave a little piece of carving on a Â
Piece of wood that is going to be installed into this incredible Museum here within the next few  months or a few years so let’s see if we can do that here in a second so this here is the carving Â
Area I and I want to see if maybe I can put a little bit of work into one of these pieces of wood oh that is so beautiful isn’t it lookss like it takes a lot of
Work how’s it going sir all right is what is this going to be it’s going to be a Chinese traditional  lion Chinese traditional lion yeah wow you guys are so talented it’s amazing how you guys do
That takes a lot of practice huh is there any way I can maybe leave a little carving behind on the lion okay all right I can sit down right here awesome wow this is amazing just like that okay can you hold this for me yes let me try let me try it Â
Real quick okay so just very lightly huh yes very LLY don’t try to push too hard okay yes  you’re doing good there we go yes okay you know what yes do that piece too yes okay here the
End so if you mess this up you have to redo the whole thing huh it’s yeah we don’t need to do  the whole thing like if you make a mistake you got to do piece of wood a little bit of mistake Â
Is okay but when you get the whole out off it it it’s not okay it’s not okay huh all over  where are you from BMA Myanmar yes wow you know that okay you know what here I let you do this Â
Because I don’t want to mess this up but thank you so much for letting me leave a memory here  yes um so you’re from me you’re from me and Mark man I hope to visit your country one day one day Â

My girlfriend’s card let me see actually can you help me for a second okay I okay  thank you let me see I know I got one my wallet’s a mess Don’t Judge Me guys no you Â

Man thank you guys so much for what you do this is amazing and I hope that um one day everything gets  better in Burma you can put a footage on your channel yes of course we got some good footage Â
Thank you so much thank you so much brother take care guys wow that was cool so I was just able  oh let me take the helmet don’t leave the helmet bye guys so that was awesome I just got to carve Â
A piece of the Chinese Chinese lion that’s going to be inside of the sanctuary next time we come  we got to look for that yes I wonder what piece that is finding it well yeah this here is where Â
All of the carving takes place now I think we’re actually walking the wrong way should we go to the  to the foot massage area or the boat I think the boat all right let’s go check out a foot Â
Massage you just want to sleep true she’s right all right let’s go check out the boats maybe  we’ll purchase a coconut from there and then go on a nice little boat ride but this is amazing  guys such a good experience and definitely come on down and leave a little bit of your visits
Behind so according to the the gentleman I was talking to they actually learned how to do all  of this carving here in Thailand how amazing is that so they definitely have to pay very close  attention and the school must be kind of intense because you can imagine they don’t have like large Â
Pieces of wood to just be throwing away due to mistakes all right so I think theat boat ride  actually leaves from down here let’s check the prices of the boats and then we’ll head  on we’ll head on down for a little Adventure let me see what the prices are down here where Â
Where do you purchase drinks though oh there’s a small little like Cafe Restaurant over in this direction um yeah what is the price of the boats yeah price of the boats  okay 3% oh maybe you have to purchase the ticket somewhere
Else I have three persons with me how much how much Bots how much 1, 300 oh one person 300 okay  you no ticket I do have no not ticket for boats okay um I grab a drink and then we come okay thank
You all right so I guess we need to purchase a ticket it’s 300 B per person let’s try and see  if we can’t get a drink and then we’ll go on a little boat ride to be honest that’s almost Â
As expensive as it cost to enter the museum the whole Sanctuary experience on its own but  you know what When in Rome we’ll do it why not all right I see gladus over there making some Â
Stories let’s actually check out this little snack area and see what we can get our hands on okay  so these here are like some of the pictures that they were running around t prior to the visit umbrella over here and then down here is the food and drink like little snack station Â
So we came to a decision very fast I don’t think we’re actually going to do the boat ride because  it’s 300 B per person the entrance was 500 bucks so that’s one reason and then also because we just Â
Checked the forecast and rain is going to come you can almost smell it when it’s about to pour  here in Thailand so I think we’re just going to take advantage of the time maybe grab a smoothie Â
And then go sit down at the foot massages and I can actually see that the elephant riding tours  start up here as well I noticed a couple people doing laps in the elephants and it’s quite funny Â
Because on the the brochure they actually put in red writing that says do keep in mind that our  elephants are constantly main are constantly being visited by a veterinarian and they are  all properly nourished and healthy because of course they work at such a big um site so yeah Â
You can take it as what for whatever you are if your belief is to not ride them then don’t ride  them but if if other people are doing it and they say it’s okay then it is what it is who Â
Are we to judge well I definitely pass on the elephant right and if you if I have to make a  choice between the Bold right and fot massage of course foot massage foot massage all right so foot Â
Massage it is before this rain comes let’s get it are you ready for a foot massage yes I’m always  ready for a foot massage try to get like two out of two times a day but you don’t want that’s my Â
Boy that’s my boy I am not about the two times a day massage I’m more about the one time a day  but Andrew and glad man they do two three times a day minimum it’s crazy I think that’s a little Â
Too much two times a day and then a full body yeah that’s my body it’s too much and you know  what before we go to town I need a smoothie all right let’s get a smoothie what do you want what
Flavor can we order here or order here okay thank you which one do you want Andrew take  a coconut smoothie coconut smoothie one for you what do you want o that’s hard decision coconut  or mango I’m not sure okay well C wow you sell beer here too amazing what will see I definitely Â
Don’t want a beer right now though I want a nice smoothie I’ll take a mango and a water please okay  okay take your time take your time but look they got smoothies 80 Bots coffees 80 to 100 Bots soft Â
Drinks herbal juices as well as shrimp chips onion rings chicken pops chicken fries you know a little  bit of stuff to snack on wow this look delicious what is that a butterfly tea lime oh herbal teas Â
Yeah that does look nice and they also sell fresh coconuts by the way oh I’m always down for a fresh  coconut yeah same here fresh coconut always hips the spot yeah you need two all right sorry no it’s Â
Okay take your time you guys are so busy here yes many people every day huh yes aw some day  2,000 2,000 visitors a day oh my god really really busy where are you from are you from uh from Paya
Yes where you from United States California but she’s from Venezuela Venezuela you know no I  don’t I have my from R USA same oh okay Minnesota Minnesota [Music] oh it’s funny because every time  gladus says uh Venezuela everybody especially in America says Minnesota and that just happened here Â
I don’t know it doesn’t sound the same but for a lot of people it does okay we’ll do one uh mango  no you want a mango right one mango smoothie two coconut smoothies coconut smoothie no no  more yeah okay now one mango smoothie then uhhuh actually two mango smoothie two pineapple smoothie Â
And one pineapple one and then um two waters no beer no beer no beer it’s too early it’s  never all right it’s never too early I just don’t want one right now you know I have a few later on Â
Right now I just really need a water 280 280 bus oh look at the water sanctuary of the truth it’s  like Waton in Waton they make their own water as well sanctuary of the truth lovely s the TR Â
If you go to Waton Waton [Laughter] water oh no that is dangerous job you take your hand off every day she every day she does that yes bring a t thank all right so let’s sit down let’s have a t let’s get ourselves a table and then we’ll Â
Um go on down to get our foot massage you know what oh we can leave our helmets here I missed  that station Saadi cop thank you kop all right let’s go and sit on sit on down by this little Â
Pond Lake Area you know what guys to be honest with you I just like to keep it 100% real all  the time I am a cheap ass but 300 bus to cruise around this little man-made Pond for me I think Â
That’s expensive especially when you’re spending 500 to enter the museum we just spent 300 B on  smoothies and Waters and personally that feels like a better decision because I can enjoy the  same view without being on the boat now let me tell you something if you’re here with your Â
Children then that’s probably a great little activity to do but as some adults In Paya eh  I could think of a million better way better ways maybe not a million a couple handful of  better ways I could spend 300 Bots do you agree I know foot massage I’d rather foot massage or Â
Tight massage okay fair enough fair enough but that’s what I’m saying I’d rather spend an hour  in some air conditioning getting rub down all my uh or five pets to use yeah you’re right there’s Â
A million ways to spend 300 B in Thailand and I don’t want to spend it on a small little boat  ride so we’re passing on that you either way on the massage you can have this view you’ll Â
Have this view on the S 2 houri so it’s amazing oh awesome yeah it’s very relax and it’s 100 B  for 1 hour yes oh man no 100 or 200 I read 100 Bots maybe that’s I think that’s half hour no Â
That’s the boats yeah the B looks beautiful it does look beautiful you can take your smoothie  there yeah you can it’s cool it’s cool it’s cool still ain’t worried my 300 bot though  but yeah um we’ll see exactly how the massages are priced out in a minute once we get there the
Smoothie worth every bit of the 80 Bots and glattus actually just purchased some bread  that they actually use at all the temples to feed the fish however here the small piece of bread is Â
30 Bots per slice and at all the temples that we go to in t in Bangkok every time we arrive  for the first time at WWA for for example the whole loaf of bread is 20 Bots and it’s Â
Huge so that is a big difference however it’s always fun feeding the fish and we actually  just learned a few days ago that a lot of the different fish that are released into these  ponds and lakes they’re actually released there for different reasons some for health some for Â
Um yeah wishing wishing themselves a great work week others to send blessings to their  families and of course just like every other temple in Thailand people feed the fish and  it’s illegal to fish where the fish are there’s a huge red one yeah I just saw that oh man he’s
Massive and there’s also um a lot of little ones a lot of little ones as well wow that red one’s huge need oh he came I’m taking all right well we’re going to enjoy a bit a few more minutes here and Â
Then we’ll make our way over to the football massage we left Andrew back at the tables  basically because we’re short on time and the rain looks like it’s coming and they were taking  forever with his food he actually just ordered french fries and was sitting there for about 25 Â
Minutes and nothing came out so we were like you know what we got to get going so we’re walking  through the rainforest now the little rainforest that they have here at the temple it’s actually  super beautiful and there’s all kinds of like sculptures throughout it as well and then down Â
Here they have a resting point with chairs where you can actually Overlook the Little Pond and the  restaurant that we’re eating at and then of course over this way is the foot massages so Â
Let’s make our way over there now see what we can get for a little bit of time but wow look at this view incredible right now we actually came down from that  way is that how we leave as well yes oh yeah there’s the exit and Â
Then down in this direction are the massages let’s see how much a massage cost how much the massage uh 30 100 B 30 minutes 100 BS okay um okay how many more minutes for you 15 minutes 15 minutes 30 minutes okay okay thank you so we’re actually not doing the massage Â
So there’s only one masseuse available right now and there’s three of us so I actually don’t want  to sit there for an hour by myself without um yeah everyone else around so you know what I’m Â
Going to take one for the team I’m not going to do my massage even know gladus is like yeah do  it do it do it we’ll wait for you I don’t want to have them waiting for an hour so definitely Â
If you’re planning on coming to sanctuary of the truth this is a full day activity I mean you can  spend the whole day here yeah or half day yeah I think so right but you got to come here with time Â
Is basically what I want to say if you think it’s one of those places you can come take a picture  of and leave no you’re wrong this is definitely a minimum 2hour place but you can easily spend about Â
5 hours to do all of the attractions Now by far what has been your favorite part of the sanctuary  o I really love the tour I think the tour it’s very detail they I I like that it’s included on Â
The price so and the massage of course that’s my favorite part like you are going to have a lot of  food massages in Thailand all around Thailand but nothing like a massage with the sanary of the TR Â
As a background exactly and to be honest with you guys I’m a bit disappointed that I can’t do the  massage right now but we’ll come back we’ll come back um with time and probably not film it next Â
Time because of course um I think next time I’m coming to this place I’m not bringing any cameras  we’re going to come and just enjoy it without filming because this is a job it does take a Â
Lot out of you and I feel like there’s a lot of stuff that even I miss when I’m out filming that  I never even really see until I go back and view the video I’m like oh so that’s what was she was Â
Pointing at like you know I’m too worried about making sure the camera isn’t overheating in this  heat that I’m not overheating in this heat and just um all around focus on everything else but  what I’m doing in that actual moment so um the tour to amazing I would really like to come back Â
And do this look in this little house you can Dr a Tha custom for 400 b so that way you take  amazing pictures like with you know the Ty C and so yeah that would be awesome now you know what Â
Let’s actually get a little closer to the elephant I want to show them the elephant oh here they come  actually guys here comes two of the elephant rides that I man it makes me so sad to see to be honest Â
I think um for everybody watching for all those Thai government officials that are going to see  this video I think this is one of those things that should be should be removed from the the Â
Park now I actually um just got done seeing they that they say that they don’t hit the animals or  anything but I’ll be honest with you guys I just saw this um so the people that are up in front Â
They’re actually called Mah Hoots and the people that are riding them are tourists but I actually  just witnessed right as they were walking away I didn’t want to say it too loud cuz I don’t want Â
To start any problems but I noticed that uh one of the mots hit the elephant on the top of his  head with the wooden stick and the wooden stick actually has like a chisel end and he was like you Â
Know scraping the the top of the elephant’s head probably in a hurtful way because the  elephant didn’t want to move so I don’t know just things that I noticed and I personally  don’t think it’s right and I think that a lot of people would actually enjoy it a lot more here Â
If that wasn’t present what you say or at least keep the elephants there and you know maybe put  in a little area where you can feed them bananas and you know give them water why not stuff like Â
That is fine but there’s no need to um do laps around the the museum with Taurus on your back  but whatever um I can’t change the world can’t change people’s opinions all right Andrew is  still sitting here with no french fries man these These are 45-minute french fries they better be Â
The best I hope you ordered them with like some truffle butter or something I hope like I don’t  know they’re coming from France no they’re on the way they’re out looking for the potatoes right now  but what with we passed on the massages because there’s only one massuse available the other one Â
Just started and they’re 1 hour massages well 30 minutes for 100 Bots 1 hour for 200 B which is an  amazing deal by the way guys that’s super cheap like um 200 B is what we find in the local sides Â
Of Bangkok like or 170 180 um but around like pataya pataya walking Street any other tour areas  you’re looking at like 350 350 300 for an hour so 200 bu great great option but yeah anyways I think Â
This is where we’re going to end today’s video we’ll probably be spending all night here waiting  on your fries but that’s all good if you’re coming here order a smoothie and forget about the food Â
Go eat it somewhere else about 5 minutes to get a refund in about 5 minutes man he’s five he’s about  20 minutes later than what I would have asked for a refund but more power to more impatient Â
Than yeah fair enough well it’s nice seeing you guys of the truth by grab by grab or by Moto  taxi we’ll probably take a moto taxi to be honest but um yeah see you guys again soon for another one I was the one to take a love
