What Wat is that? [Part 2]

As I said in my earlier post...this Wat is by my old digs- where I liked the neighbourhood, but not the room or the bathroom [if you could call it that]-but I digress.

When the Sunday markets are on, this Wat is a hive of activity, and you can barely tell that it is a Wat/Temple. But the gardens at the back are delightful, and ever so peaceful to sit in of an afternoon. One day I was walking into the garden area, and a man came toward me and said Hello...I said, "Oh, am I allowed to walk in here?" 

To which he replied: "Of course you are, you are a tourist, you can walk where ever you want" Now doesn't THAT say something!!

Buddhists ring the bells, but of course tourists can too!

I love this sign....what a kind thing to do for us tourists





This is a warning that there are people who might try and rip you off, but the way it is phrased is priceless.


















It's very interactive at this Wat
