Wat Rung Khun: The White Temple, 2

Conquering evil

Sculpting one of the newer buildings


Something to do with evil, pain, suffering


The Golden Temple

We did not do all the exhibits

New construction in progress

In the big exhibit hall, two enormous (unlabeled) cases of...apparently, things
left behind by visitors that had out-stayed their time in lost and found...watches,
wallets, cameras, tripods, backpacks, hats, garments, umbrellas, cellphones, you
name it...

Tribute to King Rama IX

Another as yet unfinished building

More evil, pain, suffering

Ouch!

Toilets; seriously; gold is the color of impure things, greed, etc.

Exiting through the gift shoppe

Immediately adjacent to the wat are these pens of fighting roosters; cock-fighting
is legal in Thailand, although betting on them is not...

Unwilling to wait on the bus, we rode back to town in a
songthaew
