Chiang Khrua and other nearby pottery villages

Preamble:
I promised some information about pottery villages in the region.
Unfortunately I had been under the weather, so was not able to make the trip myself.
Next best thing, I handed my camera to ace reporter Dee, along with "oil" money and instructions.

Nearing Chiang Khrua, there are a number of temples and churches along the highway worth a stopover.

.
Wat Pho Chai Chiang Khruea. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Saint Michael



Also worth a stopover is a park along the north of Nong Hahn lake

.

Pottery is made in numerous villages in the area to help farmers earn extra income.
If you have the time, I recommend exploring other nearby villages.
