Lady Buddha

Rained the whole day but didn’t spoil the experience

This place is something else. Like a dream, a fairytale, a movie set, a fantasy land, a French village. Our intention was to see the golden bridge but this day brought so much more to the table, even though we were soaking wet throughout. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly but seemed to want to move round very quickly when we wanted to stop and breathe and admire and take it all in. There is so much to see here and it is so beautiful. Luckily it was a pretty quiet day but still other tourists with cultural differences (we don’t queue, we are I’ll-mannered, we don’t care if we bash you with our brollies or push in front of you...) became an obvious annoyance. The French village is spectacular as is the bridge and the pagoda. My concern that in the summer months, the place will be unbearable with the amount of tourists passing through. I think from here on in you will struggle to get that Instagrammable shot on the bridge because there will just be too many people there.
