2012 Feb 8: Thailand Day 4

Today we visited Wat Arun, Wat Suket (Golden Mount) and Jim Thompson's House.

Wat Arun is the temple complex across the river from the Grand Palace. It was where the Emerald Buddha was originally housed. The Emerald Buddha was moved to the Grand Palace but Wat Arun remains.

Here are some pictures of Wat Arun:

You can climb Wat Arun and the view from above is exceptional:

All and all, another good day in Bangkok.
