Wat Pho houses the massive Reclining Buddha. Those are his toes there on the right. hehehe:
Tourists and pilgrims walk around the Buddha counterclockwise, entering by his head, walking down to aforepictured toes, and around to his back. The entire time I was walking down his front, I could hear a loud, mysterious clinking and tinkling which sounded like some kind of percussion instrument. Turns out what I heard was hundreds of coins plinking into jars lining the back wall. People walked the length, dropping a coin into each pot, creating a very interesting cacaphony.
To finish, we have a lovely lotus flower blooming on the temple grounds:
Hope your weekend was lovely. Muah!
