Wat's this? Wat's that - every where a wat wat

Wat is Thai for temple. There are hundreds of king's temples and hundreds of rich people's temples and temples everywhere you can turn here. One of the blessings of money is that you should create a temple if you have money. So many companies, wealthy people, foreigners who have businesses here etc create temples about as fast as you can say Phuket.

There are however several famous Wats we visited. We visited Wat Po, The temple of the emerald Buddha, the temple of the Gold Buddha, the temple of the reclining (not sleeping) Buddha.
