I think this is the temple in Wat Po, Bangkok, that houses the Recling Buddha

The Recling Buddha himself! He is HUGE.

People praying to Buddha.

One of the many temples in Wat Po and Bangkok too!

Another prayer room.

Drink coaster from "The Oriental" hotel, one of the best in the world!

Me in one of the many different types of transport. It's like a pick-up truck with a roof!

The Baioki Sky Tower. It's about 86 floors high. Only a few floors shorter than the Empire State Building.
