How was the Snake Temple built in Thailand and why didn't it appear in the guidebook?

Because this temple was not built to develop tourism projects, but to worship a group of snakes. In Thailand? Lingshe Temple? Found it by accident. The temple is independent of the water like an island and can only be accessed through a narrow path. There is a big white snake on the island. This? Lingshe Temple? The construction of this building originated from a site accident.

When the accident happened, a local Thai was building a house. Once a worker suddenly had a dream that a snake begged him not to continue building, or his home would be destroyed. Today, there are still many people in Thailand who believe in the spirit of God and Buddha and have never completely abandoned the mysterious power. The worker also believed in dreams, so he woke up and told the person in charge of the construction site.

But the progress of the project is not up to them, so they have to ignore it. On the same day, when workers used bulldozers to clean up the scene, they shoveled away a nest of cobras and many cobras died. The workers are afraid, but after all, they are just snakes, and everyone keeps working in fear. As a result, strange things often happen on this site, which makes it impossible to continue the project.

Later, the person in charge of the project was instructed by Brahmanism and promised to build a temple to worship the cobra's nest. Since then, there has been nothing unusual on the construction site, and the construction has been successfully completed. After the completion of the project, the person in charge kept his promise and built a temple for the cobra, which is the Spirit Snake Temple. It is said that when the snake temple was being built, a fire broke out on the island, and everything was burned except the temple in the center of the island.

Generally speaking, Lingshe Temple is not a local temple built to develop tourism, but because the local people really believe in this temple because of superstition, and most people will not travel to this place at all, so it is not in the travel brochure. It's like many remote places in China still have their own beliefs, but the beliefs in these places will not be widely publicized.
