| Wat Phra Kaew | |

Today I mainly walked around Bangkok but also visited Wat Phra Kaew, the most important Buddhist temple in Thailand. It contains a statue of Buddha, carved from a single block of jade dating from the 15th century A.D. This stautue is the most holy image of Buddha in the country. The temple itself was amazingly beautiful and very colourful. Although it was very crowded I enjoyed it ver much. It was a great experince visiting it and I'm really hoping to see more temples like this outside of Bangkok. I will spend two more days in Bangkok and then I'll leave so I will try and squeeze in as much as possible in the time I have here the next few days.
