You know that all children love bright and unusual things. That’s why they will like Buddhist temples. Wat Thewa Sangkharam is the most entertaining and beautiful one. The complex consists of several small pagodas, the roofs of which are decorated with gold carvings. There’s generally a lot of gold here, which attracts a lot of visitors — even the little ones — to the Buddhist shrine. The area around the complex is very clean and well maintained. Another beautiful and richly decorated complex is called Wat Khun Thai Tha Ram. It also has a lot of gold, which attracts both adults and children.

If you’re searching for a museum that will be interesting to kids, you should visit the Military Museum telling the history of the state from its foundation to the present day. And everybody knows that this has always been accompanied by wars. The exhibits include military clothing, equipment, and weapons. The museum is located near the bridge over the River Kwai, which is another interesting city attraction. Children will also be captivated by a visit to the Thailand-Burma Railway Centre dedicated to the railway construction.

Muang is also rich in natural landmarks. For example, in the suburbs, you can find a giant tree, which you definitely can’t miss. It’s so big that it seems such trees do not exist at all in nature. It is over four centuries old, and its grandeur impresses even those who consider themselves experienced travellers who have seen everything during their wanderings. Besides, it is a great place to hide from the scorching sun. Another great natural landmark is the River Kwai.
