Synopsis
Whether set in the greenery of a remote village, or confined by the imposing commercialism of a city, the ornately embellished wood and stone Buddhist temples of Thailand express the vitality of the Buddhist faith in that land. This introductory volume discusses the evolution and significance of Thai temple architecture and murals, and describes the most famous and most frequently visited sites.
