You exit the airport, look around, and somewhere in the distance, a temple tower just... appears, as if it's part of the landscape. There's no elaborate introduction. You walk a little further and start noticing little things—people chatting outside temples, a burst of color on the gopuram, someone offering flowers. Soon, you realize the whole place has its own serene rhythm.

People talk, pray, bargain for flowers, drink tea—everything happens around them. You step inside, and there's such peace that you stop thinking for a minute.
