Thailand: Lop Buri - Phra Prang Sam Yot
Phra Prang Sam Yot , the temple of the three towers is Lop Buri's finest landmark and is a provincial symbol.
Dating to the 13th century, the building was originally built as a Hindu shrine. Phra Sam Yot is a classic example of the Lop Buri style of architecture, constructed using laterite {a reddish clayey topsoil that hardens when dry} sandstone and the whole, once, faced in decorated stucco.
The three Prangs signify the Hindu Trinity of Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver and Shiva the Destroyer. They are joined together, each on a cruciform base with doorways on each side and connected by a covered walkway that has long since disappeared.
During the reign of King Narai the Great, the shrine was converted into a Buddhist temple and a number of Buddhist images are still evident.....
A large group of Long-tailed Macaques have made Sam Yot their home. Although wild, these monkeys are fed by the local people and the ticket booth at the temple has food for sale for them.

Lopburi is the capital city of Lopburi Province in Thailand. It is about 150 kilometres (93 mi) northeast of Bangkok. Today the city is best known for the hundreds of crab-eating macaques (Macaca fascicularis) that live in the middle of the city, especially around the Khmer temple, Prang Sam Yot and a Khmer shrine.
Come along with us as we journey by train from Ayutthaya to Lopburi for the day. We check out the ruins sites of Wat Phra Sri Rattananmahathat, Prang Khaek, the Phra Kaan Shrine, and Phra Prang Sam Yot. We walk through old town where the monkeys run rampant on the streets and eventually ending up at the Prang Sam Yot which is dominated by the macaques.

Monkeys at Phra Prang Sam Yot Temple (Part 2) - Lopburi, Thailand
Together with my wife, we visited the Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in Lopburi, Thailand which is north of Bangkok about 2 hours.
There the monkeys are all active. They love when the foreigners bring them food.
You definitely should not dress up, and it is advised to wear old clothing; because these monkeys are dirty and will dump their food on you.
It was definitely a fun and exciting place, however extremely hot today.

Located on Vichayen Road, approximately 200 meters from the railway station, Phra Prang Sam Yot is Lop Buri’s best known landmark and provincial symbol. A former Hindu shrine built in the 13th century in the classic Bayon style of Khmer architecture, the compound comprises three Prangs (towers) linked by corridors. The three laterite and sandstone spires, each decorated with classic stucco, are believed to have originally represented the Hindu Trimurti; Brahma (the Creator), Vishnu (the Preserver) and Shiva (the Destroyer).

Monkeys at Phra Prang Sam Yod, Lop Buri, Thailand
The famous Phra Prang Sam Yod, in Lop Buri is a landmark that is instantly recognisable to any Thai, itself no mean feat in a country littered with distinctive ancient landmarks. Lop Buri is famous for its monkeys and they swam around and over the iconic Prang Sam Yod, originally a Hindu shine that has three towers to symbolise the Hindu trinity, but which was later converted to a Buddhist temple. The monkeys are all around the ruined temple which sits in a grass compound. It's a superb picture and it makes you feel you have been transported straight onto an India Jones set, except that the temple is made of stone, not cardboard. The monkeys are certainly not shy, and signs warn visitors to keep a tight hold onto their possessions. The monkeys aren't bothered by the rush of traffic either, scuttling across the busy roads just like any hurrying Lop Buri resident and they clamber over the buildings, with many a smashed glass pane bearing testimony to their presence.

Lopburi Monkey Temple Prang Sam Yot (Wat San Phra Kan)
All it takes to get there is a bus, van, or train and the time to take the 3 hour journey from Victory Monument in Bangkok to Lopburi. If you are looking for a high end retreat with little animal interaction, Lopburi may not be your cup o' tea but if you are looking for....something else, something ancient something so special; 500-600 very social very playful monkeys Prang Sam Yot is where the magic lies. The Thai version of Ramayana tells a story of how Rama created the ancient city of Lopburi with the help of his friend Hanuman the Monkey. The story of Hanuman the Monkey King is an ancient one....and to participate in magic all you have to do is take a bus, van or train to Lopburi. Prang Sam Yot will be close by . Before you arrive at the temple make sure all loose items, sunglasses, train tickets, smaller sized cameras and especially food are locked, zipped tucked away...or better yet if you don't want to loose it don't bring it. There are small bags of monkey food at 20 baht for purchase. Several TA reviewers stated that the temple is smelly and the town is dirty. I would strongly disagree. The monkeys smell a little like sweaty monkeys, Thailand is so hot all year round can't blame them for being sweaty. I was sweaty too. This extraordinary animal adventure is a one of a kind and truly should not be missed. This one particular baby monkey kept eating the tiny glass beads from my shirt. She found very interesting and I found her to be very cute so it made for some very special moments. Didn't realize I was calling her my Sophie Monkey. That's 2FUN!!! Thanks for Watching!!!
