The Golden Buddha in Bangkok

The Golden Buddha, Wat Thaimit, Bangkok, Thailand, taken July 2010.

We take off our shoes at the entrance to the Wat.  Inside are people offering prayer to the largest golden statue of Buddha in the world.  This solid gold statue, built 800 years ago, is 10 feet high and weighs 5 tons.
