From Episode 3, we witnessed the simple way of life at "Kaeng Kut Ku". We rode up to the Wat Phra Phutthabat Phu Kwai Ngern temple to pay respects to the Buddha's footprint, which is highly revered by the local villagers.
In the past, the journey to pay homage to the Buddha's footprint was quite difficult. However, nowadays, traveling to this temple can be done conveniently by using the Chiang Khan - Pak Chom route, which is approximately 6 kilometers long. When you reach Ban Pha Baen, follow the岔路 to Ban Umung for another 3 kilometers. You will then reach the uphill path, which is a gravel road for about 1 kilometer. Then you will arrive at Wat Phra Phutthabat Phu Kwai Ngern.
We parked our car in this parking lot and walked about 100 meters to reach our destination.
Another eye-catching feature for visitors is the silver buffalo statue located at the parking lot at the entrance of the temple.
The Silver Buffalo Footprint of the Buddha
The Silver Buffalo Footprint of the Buddha is located in Ban Pha Baen, Bu Hom District. The footprint measures approximately 120 centimeters in length and 65 centimeters in width. It is enshrined on a whetstone and was registered as an ancient monument in 1935.

Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the various communities in Bu Hom Subdistrict, revealing the unique lifestyle of the people living in these hillside villages.
On our way back, we rode our motorbikes carefully. If you want to ride a motorbike, be careful because the road is quite narrow and there might be some problems when cars pass each other.
After that, we rode back to our accommodation and packed our belongings. The kind owner of the accommodation even rode a motorbike to take us to the Chiang Khan bus terminal. We bought tickets back to Bangkok.
We thought it would take about 8-10 hours, and we arrived in Bangkok safely.
This trip has been a revelation, offering a glimpse into the beauty of nature and the simplicity of life. The realization that "just enough" is the key to happiness has been the most profound takeaway.
