Wat Trai Mit - Golden Buddha


If you're contemplating not climbing up these stairs,
you really don't know what you're missing


The 13th century Golden Buddha, Wat Trai Mit's main draw, is worth
a mind boggling 20 million dollars !
Times 4 to get the MYR equivalent.

Wat Trai Mit - on temple grounds


The first time I saw this, my jaw literally dropped.
It's so small yet incredibly grand.
You're seeing exactly what I saw, as I stood outside the gate to the temple


 As we walked in, I wanna kick myself for coming to this city so many times over the years, yet only discovering this today.
Just stunning !

Monkey God Temple - Bangkok Chinatown


Well, well, what do you know.
I'm beginning to like Chinatown very much for all the little surprises that are cropping up here and there


The statuettes are really beautiful .
Temple small but very well kept .
A constant stream of devotees makes it frustrating,trying to get a shot from outside.
