Wat Arun

Today we took a ferry over to Wat Arun, the Temple of the Dawn. One of then oldest temples in Bangkok, it is decorated in pieces of broken tile and what looks to be small pieces of broken plates. There are very steep stairs around the stupa that you can climb, but they are not for the fainthearted, as getting back down is quite treacherous. After touring all the stupas we headed over to the temple to make some insence offerings at the Buddha statues.
