A small neighborhood Wat with a BIG reclining Buddha
This wat was very small and tucked off a side street in old Chiang Mai. Though the main temple and the whole complex itself were very small, there was a large and impressive reclining Buddha statue housed in a side chapel. The statue itself was beautiful and covered in gold leaf. The chapel containing it was painted on the inside with dozens of murals depicting significant events in the life of Buddha. There was no one else around so I spent some time admiring....

I'd like to see a photo from the reclining buddha's point of view. $20 says there's a gold tv showing ESPN's SportsCenter. Or maybe not.
These photos are wonderful!!
