Temple of the Reclining Buddha – Travels With Tricia

Rainy Day at Bangkok’s Wat Pho

Puddles of rain collect in the courtyard of Bangkok's Wat Pho temple.

Despite the grey skies which prevailed during our visit, Bangkok’s Wat Pho complex showcased its kaleidoscopic colors. The temple complex was founded in 1781 and houses more than one thousand Buddha images. It’s best known for housing the famous Reclining Buddha statue.
