Bangkok- Grand Palace

Wat Phra Kaeo is a temple of the Emerald Buddha - in terms of importance for Buddhists similar to the Jasna Gora for Catholics. The fate of the jade, not emerald Buddha image was very turbulent, and its presence in Bangkok, after many changes of its whereabouts, is actually symbolic and certified the victory of Thailand over Laos.

Wat Po - the oldest temple in Bangkok – is home of the reclining Buddha statue. In this position, the Buddha was waiting for nirvana.
