Temple of the Reclining Buddha Wat Pho

The Temple of the Reclining Buddha, Wat Pho, officially known as Wat Phra Chetuphon Vimolmangklararm, is one of the oldest and largest temples in Bangkok. Its history dates back to the era of the ancient capital Ayutthaya (14th–18th centuries), but it acquired its modern appearance during the reign of King Rama I (1782–1809), who significantly expanded the complex.
