bro…thank you for the useful info’s and photos……its a plesure to have your blog online…..i’m planning to visit Betong next week i.e.29th July…..we (with my frens) are there for relaxing and for “maja” of course….we are leaving stressful Singapore for a week vacation….i hope it will be a nice location fro us…..i’m just wondering if you have any contact number of the so called “TOUR-GUIDE” =)

I guess yes, its true, there’s nothing much for girls @ Thailand. I went there last year Oct and it was a pleasant experience but nothing I would shout about. I enjoyed the lovely & cheap massages/manicures/pedicures/salons though! =)

I hope you didn’t attempt to get any extra services in Thailand!

I foud your information really useful. Narrated nicely and its look like wonderful journey. Thanks alot bro for the useful info.

hye bro.just browsed through your blog and i find very interesting to read about your trip to betong. bro just wanna ask about sak-yant tattoos. is there any place in kl or nearby you know can do the sak-yant tattoo? thanks

Thank you very much for the guide. I really appreciate your kind concern and guidance. I will do my homework first. Thank you again.

Bro,
The reason i would like to go to the temple is to know and learn more about the Sak Yant Tattoos and its benefits which is part of the Thai buddhism. Would it be likely for me to head to Wat Sonom Brom to learn more about tattoos and its benefits ?

@Tom : As I said before bro, Sak Yant tattoos secrets would not be revealed by any of the monks. Plus you will have difficulty communicating with them because they speak scarce English, and only fluent in Thai language. If you take a guide with you, he might cheat you up for money of course.

For a starter : http://www.sak-yant.com/ . Learn up on your own and prepare yourself brother, because it’s not something you can tattoo and take no care about it. Once you know what you want and prepared for it, go up to Thailand, meet any of the monks there, and tell them you want to get that the tattoo(which you’ve decided to be done). They would gladly do it for you.

Bro,
I would like to go to Betong Buddhist temple and learn more about buddhism from the monks there. Which temple would you suggest me to go. do you have any contacts there (betong) which would be able to help or guide me when i go to betong.
My trip will be solely for religious purpose.

@Tom : I’m sorry bro, but I do not have any contacts there. In Thailand, there is no specific temple that you have to visit. You can visit any temple, and but if you’re going to tell me about learning Buddhism, I suggest that’s not the place to go. If you’re going for prayers or tattoos, then it’s all fine. Learning any religion is not a matter of going to the temple or pilgrimage site, rather keeping a high faith on whoever you choose to pray, and then reading any source and materials will guide you along the way to your quest of seeking spiritualism. Betong is a small town, so you can just ask any of the tuk-tuk driver or taxi driver to send you to the nearby temples. I’m sure you will be blessed. Good luck brother:)
