Wonder at Wat Pho

Like New York, Bangkok is a diverse city full of different influences. But the most common culture here is celebrated in the form of Wat Pho – the best-known Buddhist temple in the city.

It’s a complex of buildings, each beautifully decorated with gold gilt and pagodas. Wat Pho is also home to one of the largest depictions of Buddha in the world, The Reclining Buddha. It’s an incredible 49 feet tall and 150 feet long – an unforgettable sight.
