Bangkok // Reclining Buddha

After our trip to the Grand Palace in Bangkok we walked around the corner and come to Wat Pho. Wat Pho is the home of the famous reclining Buddha, and is also one of the oldest and largest wats in Bangkok.

I can definitely understand why it is considered the largest, that is one big Buddha shrine, as you can see! The reclining Buddha is about 43 m long, painted gold, and has feet images on its big feet inlaid with mother of pearl. In and around the complex are many other intricately designed temples to see if your into that. I found it better to just take a break by the koi pond to escape the heat, rest my feet, and feed mr. Zachman.
