Wat Si Sawai in Sukhothai Historical Park
The Snapshot this week is from our visit to Sukhothai Historical Park in Thailand this past week. Sukhothai, translating literally to mean “Dawn of Happiness,” is considered to be the first capital of Thailand, settled in the early 12th century. This photograph is of the entrance to Wat Si Sawai. Originally a Hindu sanctuary, it was later expanded and changed to a Buddhist temple.
