Wat Pho

Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha) is Bangkok's largest and oldest temple complex, home to a colossal 46-meter gold-plated Reclining Buddha whose feet alone are 5 meters tall and inlaid with 108 auspicious symbols in mother-of-pearl. The temple also houses Thailand's first university and is considered the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, with an on-site massage school and clinic. Its forest of chedis (stupas) decorated in colored Chinese porcelain is a magnificent spectacle.
