Wat Pho

Wat Pho is the temple of the reclining Buddha. The Buddha is 46 meters long and 230 years old. He is gold-plated cement. The temple grounds also houses chedes or pagodas each of which house the ashes of a prominent family. This temple is also an important centre for the teaching of Thai massage and Thai medicine.

It was very crowded and VERY hot. Our guide, Air, blamed the crowds on it being Saturday.

All of the temples today required us to remove our shoes.Leggi altro
