| This temple is made completely of marble, save a few incredible mosaic designs that line the roofs and doorways. The grounds hold 53 different sculptures of Buddha with the largest and most beautiful inside the Wat itself. The ashes of King Rama V, one of the most respected King's in Thai history are buried at the foot of this Buddha. When Buddhists come to worship they are honoring the Buddhist religion as well as the fifth King. | ||||||||||||||
