The biggest chedi in Thailand is in Nakhon Pathom Province, west of Bangkok. People can go there by day trip from Bangkok. There is a big Buddha in front of the chedi on the right picture.

Everyone is listening to the monk chanting after they made merit by giving food to the monks. The reclining Buddha inside the temple.

Area around chedi are all empty like this and picture on the right shows lots of shrines around the chedi.

I am lighting the candle, getting ready to show respect to the Buddha image.
