Wat Arun
21 August 2008
As promised in my previous post 2 days ago, here are some of the pictures taken by Kevin and I in Wat Arun.
One of the shots taken when I visited Wat Arun in 2006
Wat Arun, perhaps better known as the Temple of the Dawn, is one of the best known landmarks and one of the most published images of Bangkok.
The temple is located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok.
This is one of my fave shots in Wat Arun
The full name of the temple is Wat Arunratchawararam Ratchaworamahavihara. (Wow, this is tough to pronounce in a go, isn’t it?)
And it is also a hallmark of the reign of King Rama III.
Kevin: Hello lion. Are you bored?
You definitely can find such cute statues in the surrounding compound before entering the temple.
My best shot taken in Thailand! I love this shot!!!
The Wat really looks better from a distance than close up, and you’re not missing out too much even if you only view from across the river.
I just love the clouds in the background. Good job for this shot, Kev!
It is possible to walk up the stairs of the main prang, which gives quite a scenic view of the Chao Phraya river.
I just love the clouds in the background. Good job for this shot, Kev!
Nevertheless, when you are in Wat Arun, you just have to camwhore with your travel-mates.
Grace: HOUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!! (Meditating)
Including pictures like the one above.
