Wat Khao Tabaek, Buddhist temple in Nong Kham, Thailand.

Wat Khao Tabaek is a Buddhist temple built on a natural hill with distinct upper and lower sections containing various structures and spaces. A lengthy pedestrian walkway connects the two main parts of the grounds to allow visitors to move between them.

The temple was founded in 1976 and has grown from a simple local worship site into a more widely known religious destination over the decades. This development shows how it became increasingly important to the spiritual community.

The temple serves as a gathering place where locals come to pray and meditate together throughout the year. You can observe how people use the grounds for their daily spiritual practices and personal reflection.

The temple is open daily for visitors and easily accessible, with multiple pathways and rest areas scattered throughout the grounds for comfort. There is an entrance fee required to access certain sections, particularly the area with transparent viewing panels.

A section of the pedestrian walkway is made entirely of transparent glass, allowing visitors to see the landscape directly beneath their feet. This glass section can accommodate many people at once and creates a memorable experience for those brave enough to walk across it.
