Po Klong Garai

NHA TRANG   ... It was a long bus ride from Dalat to Nha Trang. Fortunately, we stopped to see the Cham Hindu temple, Po Klong Garai. It was enough to steal anyone's breath away.

I borrowed a bike and with that mobility, I was off exploring. I wanted to see the sitting Buddha but had no map. I also wanted to find my way to the Po Hagar Cham Towers. Somehow, I did manage to find the temple -- I don't know how. The biggest surprise was while crossing the bridge to the temple, I saw the Thung Chai basket boats. They were two meter wide boats made of bamboo and covered with pitch.
