Now that I'm no longer in Korea, I'll probably be using this blog instead.

Thailand: Wat Arun (January 25)

After the Grand Palace, we reboarded the and crossed he river to Wat Arun which means "Temple of the Dawn". This was the temple I was most anticipating as it is my favorite aesthecially and was the source material for the mural had painted.


Every new king builds a temple (I think one build a school instead).
Wat Arun was built by Rama II (statue on left).











I'm not sure what the point of the cloth or its destination, but various tourists signed their names and drew pictures. Naomi's drawing is on the right.



Back to the ferry and off to Wat Pho...
