- This was a unique experience in Thailand! In this video, we visit Chiang Mai’s famous Silver Temple, with our friends at Eat Walk Talk Tour.
We are invited into the local silver smith community to see how the silver designs are made, before being given an amazing insight into the silver temple itself by a representative of the temple.
We then travelled to Wat Suan Dok to view the ashes of the kings, before spending AN HOUR in deep conversation with a Buddhist Monk.
Amazing!

Josie this was by far the best one you have done, I love that you are immersing yourself into the culture and learning about their traditions, it’s a beautiful journey you are on now and we all get to see how much you have grown from these experiences. You should be very proud.
Your long time supporter from the Hawkesbury x
Jo you beautiful human!! Thank you 🥹🥺😩💖 thank you so much for your long and continued support! It means so much to lil ol me 🥺💖💖
My absolute favourite of all your vlogs!! I have tears, listening to the monk's words about the teachings etc just really touched my heart and the fact that you gave him and the teachings so much respect makes me even more impressed with you. May we all treat others (people, animals, the planet) with love, kindness and respect - that is all I wish for in my life. Thank you so much for sharing this experience
I have traveled to Thailand several times and many WAT a.k.a temples I have visited, but have never even had a chance to chat with a monk there. Both of you are very lucky to be given this opportunity, especially for the first time given permission to record architecture that has never been recorded by other youtubers. I am very happy following your adventures. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Singapore. Stay safe and have a great day.
Thank you so much Cheiko! I am so lucky I got that experience! But even happier I could share it with you and everyone, Thank you for watching, commenting and supporting my channel!
In Thailand, the nagas are known as the highest species of mythical beast (closest to “gods”). Not sure about the northern (Lanna) folklores, but in the northeast (Isan) they’re the patron gods of rain and agriculture.
Ahhh yes I think I remember hearing they were the most important or something like that, that’s so interesting thank you so much for telling me! 🙏🏻☺️☺️
💝💝💝💝💝💝 คนไทยรักยูทูปช่องนี้ครับ
Oh thank you so much! So happy you enjoy my channel!! 🙏🏻😁😁
This particular video is so precious. It deserves millions view. Even a Thai person, like myself, has learnt so much info from this video. The deeper you explore, the more you can enhance your travel experience. You guys have done a great job digging deep in to cultural aspect. P.S. It's pretty special that you've found Thai tour guides and the monk who are very articulate in English.
This comment is amazing for me to hear thank you!! This comment means so much. Thank you. They were so amazing at English and im so fortunate to have learnt so much from them! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊
I've been in Chiang Mai for ten years and I've never been inside the silver temple. That was WONDERFUL to see. Thank you!
I’m so happy my video could give you something you haven’t been able to experience yourself!! This makes me really happy, and what my channel is all about to me. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know that you got something from it! 🙏🏻🙏🏻☺️☺️🤍
This video was great! I loved hearing all about Buddhism from the Monk! I'm always too nervous to talk to monks 🥺 but I'd love to learn more about Buddhism while we're here!
Thank you for watching!! It was definitely an amazing experience! haha. I wouldn't either but I guess that's why sometimes its good to do a tour sometimes so then you get information you dont normally find on your own! It was amazing. I still have my wrist bracelet on and its definitely been too long now but I love it I dont want to take it off 😂
I loved this video. Tina was right, not many falang (foreigners) take the time to get to know the culture and Buddhism in such depth, so thank you for sharing that experience. The monk you spoke to had a beautiful way of explaining Buddhism. I've been lucky enough to chat with many monks, but have never heard things explained so eloquently. Love the adventure and experiences videos as much as the food ones 😍
Thank you so much for this comment! I've never really understood it before until I spoke with this Monk, I'm very glad he was so good at explaining it in a way that I understood! The food videos tend to do better, but I want to experience this as well so I'm glad you enjoyed it and don't mind I do it as well :) thank you !
thank you Josie for this video for showing the other side of thailand besides your food adventures🙂 I learned a lot
Yay Pauline so glad you enjoyed 😁😁 so did I! I love learning!
ขอขอบคุณน้องทั้งสอองคนมากๆนะครับ.....ที่แสดงความเป็นไทยให้โลกได้เห็น🙏คนไทยจะรักคุณตลอดไป..คุณคือน้องสาวของคนไทย..รัก..จากคนไทยคนหนึ่ง🥰🥰🥰
I like this ,not only take a photo and see architecture but learn something new or history ,story behind.
Yes! I love learning more than just seeing something. I’m in Thailand so I love to learn about it. Thank you for liking and watching! 🙏🏻☺️☺️
I have goosebumps. OMG You are so fortunate!!! 🌸🌟😇
And I feel you both “find your niche” in this video. You may not realize it now but if you do, you can outshine other travel youtubers from now on. You don’t just travel and try food but you take your viewers deep into the “stories” and “culture” of any countries you do vlogging.
This episode is very interesting, even to me who is Thai and have traveled to many places and provinces in Thailand.
@@sun_s9067 All comments in here tell all, right? Every one of us welcomed it so well! 🥰
Jo this is amazing! Thank you so much for this comment! This means everything to me! Thank you for supporting me from the start 💖💖
This makes me so happy! Thank you liked it so much and you could find it interesting even being Thai. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻☺️☺️🥰
🥺🥺 better than I expected and I’m so happy 💖
Happy with this clip. I hope you know more how to be peaceful, stay with the present. Either good or bad gone. Nothing stays with us forever, though our body. So stay the present, be happy with every moment either good or bad. 😍😍😍
Thank you so much for watching it! 🙏🏻😁😁
it was emotional meet with the monk professor. I think he was also on some other vlog. He gives us westerners a better understanding of Buddhism. You are so lucky to have had that experience. Good content, good luck from new subscriber
Me too! We were lucky enough to speak with him for around an hour. But unfortunately most wouldn't find that an interesting video! haha, but by the end I was very moved, he does explain things in a way I/we can understand, I have to say I've never understood it properly until now, it was an amazing experience. Thank you so much for liking my content and even more for subscribing. Can't wait to show you more! 😊
@@josieliftsthings thank you Josie for taking the time to reply. I know it's hard work to build a channel but your efforts will be worth it. You will need to employ someone, lol, to make the gazillions of replies when you get the subs you deserve. no reply necessary lol
It's like I'm learning Thai histories watching this video! Love it!
That’s so good to hear! I’m so glad you got something from it and you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻🙏🏻😁😁
Wow ! I love the content in this video so much. It's great that you use the local guide to explore deep in Chiangmai history and culture. It's the no.1 travel destination for Thai people as well. 😊❤️

That’s was an heartfelt talk to a monk… hope to visit that temple too. Be safe and tc 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼☺️
We luckily got to speak with him for over an hour... unfortunately that probably wouldn't be very interesting for a whole 2 hour TH-cam video 😂 But it was such an amazing experience! Definitely a feeling in person that you cant explain. I hope you can visit it! Thank you :)

คลิปนี้สุดยอดมากๆ
Thank you so much 🙏🏻☺️☺️
We are your follower and watch your videos all the time. This segment is very interesting to us. We are planning to go to Thailand in the future and would like to know the location on a google map of the silver smith so that we can visit it. Thank you so much in advance.
This means so much to me thank you!! I’m so glad it was enjoyable even though it was different. I love doing things with thais culture as well as Thai food. I’m on ko lan right now but I will get the pin for you when I get back to land! 😁🙏🏻
This one is real quality contents, sub !
Monk teaching is the real deal you couldn't find in a more commercialize Wat
and it not easy to find monk that can properly teaching you in English outside tourist area.
Buddhism is simple way of life.. a philosophy to have peaceful mind in painful world so I wish people know about it more.
It not like we have to change religion to learn philosophy right? so most of Buddhist in Thailand are more acceptance to other religion.
Thank you so so much!! That means so much to me. Welcome to my TH-cam family 😁😁🙏🏻🙏🏻☺️☺️
P.s - I agree, that’s what I like about this experience and Buddhism and now he explained it, it’s just a way of life, not a god etc. amazing to experience. Thank you for watching 😁😁☺️☺️
ชื่นชมคุณไกด์มากคับ
Thank you so much. So happy you enjoyed. Thank you so much for watching 🙏 😊 😃

In the past, it was the Lanna Kingdom.
Chiang Mai is capital city of Lanna
Thank you!! And that’s why it can be chow when you say hello right? 😁
yo! i see my school! and there is more color to the song teaw also. like green one or white one(which take you straight to san kampeang, chea chang market parking lot to be exact.)
Your school that's amazing!!! haha I was right there 😂 I didn't know that! Thats so cool hahaha. At least you know where you're going in it! 😂
ติดตามเเล้วครับ
🙏🏻☺️
เที่ยวให้สนุกนะครับ
Thank you!! 😃
In the Northern temple, they usually buried sacred objects into the ground surrounding the holy place. And, it is a belief that women's period can destroy the holiness or the power of the objects. If women cross over during this time of the month, it will ruin the protective power.
Wow I never knew that... that's so interesting to know! Thank you for teaching me!
สุดยอดจริงๆที่คุณไป
The picture that you think the giant eats the world. Actually the giant is called Rahu. Rahu swallowing the moon It is what is compared to natural events, namely the lunar eclipse. Thai people in the past would liken the lunar eclipse to a giant named Rahu who swallowed the moon.
And temples for Thai people are like everything. as a whole kitchen When Thai people don't have money to spend, they go to the temple to ask for rice at the temple to eat. You may have seen the time in the morning when monks walk the streets and villagers feed the monks. Every day the food a monk receives is more than one person can eat. Monks will bring food that is not eaten to the poor. or when a poor person asks The monk will give food to that person. and the temple is also a place to stay Thai tourists time especially motorcyclists or camping when unable to find accommodation Thai people will choose to stay in temples. You can request to stay at the temple free of charge. Or you can make a donation to help that utility bill is up to you.😁😁🙏🙏
Oh we have seen the alms! That’s cool, I didn’t know they gave it to the poor. I didn’t know you could stay in temples either, wow!
So funny😝 welcome to thailand , and tik tok so fun , i live in bangkok , hold to see you🤣
Thank you for liking tik tok as well!! haha, thank you for watching my TH-cam 🙏 I was in bangkok before but will definitely come back! 😃
Josie, if you are interested in Buddist principles or Dharmic principles you can follow the preach of Ajarn Chayasaro on You Tube channel. He is a Buddist monk who is british origin but now he has naturalized to Thai nationality.
Oh that’s so interesting!! Thank you! That’s such an interesting journey of life. Thank you for suggesting it! And watching 🙏🏻😁😁
@@josieliftsthings You are welcome.
Million Likes
good evening you🙏🌅🌅
Evening!!!
@@josieliftsthings Congratulations on learning new experiences for both of you.
Josie, what an interesting episode you made! There is plenty of information that even I as a Thai did not know before.
This monk was interviewed by Chris Parker from Retired Working for You before (also very interesting episode). He spoke very fluently and his teaching is easy to understand.
That video was both enlightening and so funny too. The PRA AJARN (teacher) has great sense of humor while enlightened us at the same time.
Thank you!! Yes I’m so glad you could also get something out of it! 😁😁
After you said that I went and looked, same Monk!! He was so good at speaking and teaching. How blessed Chris and I are to have been able to speak to him! I love Thailand 😂😁😁🙏🏻

What was the name of the tour you did as can only see a food tour for Chiang Mai on their website- thanks
You may have to message them! They definitely have other tours! I did ones in Bangkok with them haha, I originally found them on air bnb tours though for the Bangkok Chinatown tour, so we didn’t go on the website! 😁

3rd comment!!!!!!
You’re amazing Jessica! Haha thank you for watching so quickly 🙏🏻🙏🏻😁
The colour of the robes do tell us where the monks are from indeed. I think for the maroon colour robe, the abbot represents the teaching of sanskrit and Buddhism from India. Some are Tibetan monks, Burmese monks, Thai monks, and of course the Malayan Hindu monks also. The sound of their chanting prayer for each is very distinctive. Josie, I want to thank his highness for introducing to us all a glimpse his abbot.
I'm not sure I have seen the maroon colour ones before! I have seen the yellow and mustard type colour, not sure I've seen maroon, it was really interesting to know! It's so interesting and I'm glad I could share with you! Thank you for watching 🤍
@@josieliftsthings I think the colour of the Hindu robes is saffron which is very expensive to make. I am so glad that you have made it to do some prayers in which we all do need it once awhile - namaste 🙏.

When you go to the temple,you need to dress properly.cover up,no shorts,no tank top.Tina know how to dress you.
The lady never go close to the monk or touching.even he give you or get something from the lady,he always has some fabric so you can put thing on it.
