We went to this place because we dreamed of a woman. She wanted us to go to her. We asked her who she was. We didn't know her. She said, "My name is Nang Apsara or Apsara." We had never heard of her before because we didn't know anyone by that name. When we woke up, we started to search for information, looking for the images we saw in our dreams. When we arrived, the sky was dark and scary. We walked around the castle, it was very beautiful. The food was still intact. I was still surprised that the people in the past were so good. How did they lift the big rocks? The atmosphere around was very good. It was refreshing to breathe. But in the niche with the Buddha statue, it was narrow and very stuffy. Only 1 person could enter at a time. If anyone likes ancient places, old places, and sees old Thai culture, I recommend you to go. It's worth it to see it with your own eyes and touch it with your own hands. Oh!! There is an entrance fee of 20 baht per person. Once you go in, don't forget to help take care of it and preserve it.

I had the opportunity to travel back home to the province, which I haven’t been back to for almost 10 years. This time, I stopped by to pay my respects to Prasat Sikhoraphum, which is considered an important landmark of the district and Surin province. It is considered a very complete castle and has a Narayana army that is believed to be the most complete in Thailand. This place is still as magical as ever, as I remember when I used to run around in front of this castle as a child. #Prasat Sikhoraphum #Surin
