Guess the Location!

Is it the Wat Theppitak Punnaram Temple at Korat, Thailand?

I believe that you're referring to the right one. Can you give me a google pin to confirm?

Stewart has given you an answer, It is either right or wrong, in your original posting nowhere did you ask for the name of the temple, that only came later with "Thailand is correct, but I’m looking for the temple associated with that statue. " why would you need a google pin? perhaps Stewart didn't use google to find the answer, or perhaps you don't know the name of the temple.

The translations from Thai to English are somewhat inconsistent, so the English spelling of a place can vary. What he posted is a bit different than what I have for it.
I apologize for not being clearer in my original post.

I can't give you a Google pin for this photo, but the statue itself and the terrain behind the statue would suggest that this is the one!

Ok then, over to you!

FWIW, it's about a mile off the highway, on the road from Bangkok to Khorat. Roughly midway.

Not on top of a mountain.

Somewhere in France?

 

[Shaw]

Somewhere in France?

Yes, in France.

 

[alan1972]

Yes, in France.

I'm having trouble narrowing this down further. Somewhere in the southwest? (And yes I realise that's a bit vague - I am thinking of the area roughly from the Dordogne to the Pyrenees).

Probably more in an area between the Auvergne and the Pyrenees.

Time for a hint: It's in the Hérault département of Southern France.

That helped a lot. I believe it is the village of Mourèze .

I know the answer so won't be guessing, Alan this almost exact same image complete with mask, was I believe on the BBC news a few nights ago.

I had no idea - I took it a few nights ago so maybe it was the exact same day!
