Wat Kaew Korawarahm
Wat Kaew Korawarahm, in the center of Krabi town. The stairway to this royal temple is flanked by naga-style balustrades that initially were painted a rusty red, but over time were made much more colourful and attractive.
The staircase is also lined by lanterns in the form of kanok (fig.) or kranok-shaped (fig.) kreuang soong, i.e. ceremonial fans (fig.) with an elongated handle (fig.), usually with the outline of a lotus bud (fig.).
