Wat Saket And Phu Khao Thong

One of the landmarks of Bangkok is an artificial hill with a Buddhist temple. The hill is Phu Khao Thong, which can be found within the Wat Saket Buddhist complex.

The gleaming golden Chedi on the hill.


The artificial angle is present, despite various efforts to make the hill appear "natural." A fake rock retaining wall. Gold leaf Buddha in a Wat at the bottom of the hill.

Offering to the ants, a Buddhist Happy Meal.


Plastic, big-eared beast. Buddha in the brush.

Bagged Buddha.


Alas, the main Chedi wasn't open, due to the Thai King's coronation.
