Wat Pho Temple, Bangkok, Thailand


Wat Pho Reclining Buddha

The reclining Buddha at Wat Pho is the largest in Thailand at a size of 46m long and 15m high. It is particularly stunning since it is covered from head to big toe in gold leaf, and it's huge feet are decorated in Buddhist images carved out of mother-of-pearl. Pretty impressive! *Mush
