Wat Pho

Wat Pho is generally known to the Thais, is mainly famous for the huge Reclining Buddha statue it houses. At 20 acres large, it is the largest Wat in Bangkok.

A very huge lying Bhudda at the Wat Po which was the first university in Bangkok.
On the feet of this giant you will find lessons for the scholars a long time ago.

Very cool, well worth the visit, just get in line and remove your shoes. People are taking lots of pictures so the line can move slow.
