This is Liu Xiaoshun`s Institute of Travel and Life.
Some time ago, I went with my friends to visit the famous "White Temple" in the northern city of Qinglai, Thailand, and accidentally found such a strange scenic spot next to the "White Temple ", which left us with a particularly deep impression.
The attraction looks like a rockery, but unlike our Chinese rockery, they have made it look like stalactites and carved statues on the rockery, attracting tourists to visit.
When we look closer, it turns out that most of the statues on the rockery are especially familiar to our Chinese tourists, such as the "eight Immortals" in Chinese mythology, which is also marked in Chinese.
Only, these "eight immortals" statue is a bit strange ah, how with our impression of "eight immortals" is not quite the same? Is this the Thais think of as the Thai-style "eight Immortals "?
Look at the only woman in the "eight Immortals "," he Xiangu ", are you sure this is really a character in our Chinese mythology? How does it look less like us Chinese?
Seeing so many chinese mythological characters in thai temples and chinese characters, chinese culture really has a profound influence on thailand.
Certainly, the "rockery" also naturally can not without the Thai own Buddha, after all, Thailand is a very devout Buddhism country.
In addition to the "eight Immortals ", we even found another group of familiar figures in the pool under the rockery, that is, the characters in Journey to the West, the most prominent of course is Sun Wukong!
In addition, there are other kinds of auspicious symbols in Chinese culture, such as cranes, tortoises, as well as "rich "," longevity" and other auspicious words, is really comprehensive enough.
But what surprises us most is that there`s a statue of a ninja turtle on the rockery. Is n` t this a western cartoon character? Isn`t that too "fuck "? It just left me in a mess.
With so many mythological and cartoon characters in eastern and western cultures, the thai people are really a brain hole, which chinese tourists thought that china`s "eight immortals" and "ninja tortoise" would appear in the same place?
So, have you ever been to the White Temple in Ching Lai, Thailand? Have you seen this strange spot in the White Temple? Do you think this scenic spot is too "mixed up "? If there`s a chance in the future, would you like to come here and see? Welcome to leave comments!
