The first trip that we made while we were in Thailand was a place in Pattaya called "Sanctuary of Truth". I have to say it is one of the amazing places I've ever seen in my life. 
The Sanctuary of Truth is a gigantic wooden temple like construction which covers the area of more than two rais. The top point of the buildingis about 105 meters high. It has taken over 20 years to build this and it is still underconstruction.
The building was constructed according to ancient Thai ingenuity and every square inch of the building is covered with wooden carve sculpture. The purposes of decoration with wooden carve sculptures are to use art and culture as the reflection of Ancient Vision of Earth, Ancient Knowledge, and Eastern Philosophy. With in this complex, visitors will understand Ancient Life, Human Responsibility, Basic Thought, Cycle of living, Life Relationship with Universe and Common Goal of Life toward Utopia.Getting to the castle, we sat in a horse carriage and travelled an incredibly long distance - 50 metres.
And when we finally arrived there. Wow !!!!!
What you see below is the workshop and all the woodworkers carving away.
Look at all the stuff that they made, amazing!!
