Lonely Planet review for Wat Pho
Second on the tourist itinerary after Wat Phra Kaew, this temple has many curious corners (and traditional massage pavilions) to explore beyond the crowd-pleasing reclining Buddha, a 46m-long and 15m-high figure illustrating Buddha’s passing into nirvana. It’s also home to Thailand’s largest collection of Buddha images and the earliest centre for public education.
