Wat Pho, also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is located near the Grand Palace in Bangkok. Built in 1788, it is one of the oldest and largest temples in Thailand. The temple is divided into the main temple area and the monastery area, and visitors can explore the main temple area. This area is further divided into the main hall area and the stupa courtyard area, with one of the highlights being the giant reclining Buddha statue inside the main hall. The statue is 46 meters long and 15 meters high, making it one of the iconic landmarks of Wat Pho and a popular spot for photography. The statue is adorned with exquisite mother-of-pearl inlays and 108 auspicious symbols, as well as beautiful murals and gold leaf designs on the windows. Along the corridor, there is also a row of 108 monk bowls where visitors can make offerings with coins and make wishes. Wat Pho is also the earliest university in Thailand, with a heritage in medicine and traditional Thai massage. It has undergone two reconstructions and has a long history. Thai culture has been influenced by China, so one can see the presence of Chinese elements in the architecture and sculptures of the temple. Even after the reconstruction, Wat Pho continues to attract many visitors from around the world.

The famous Four-Faced Buddha in Thailand is a miraculous statue, known as the "Fulfiller of Wishes" Buddha. Every day, worshippers from around the world come to pay homage. The Buddha has four faces, representing love, career, health, and wealth. Visitors can worship each face in a clockwise direction and mention their birthdate and time. Inside the Four-Faced Buddha, one can purchase incense, candles, and garlands for worship at a fair price. Offerings include elephants, flowers, and coconuts. After worship, one can ask for a bottle of holy water from the fellow worshippers and remember to fulfill their vows when their wishes come true. The order of worship is important. Enter through the main gate, worship the first face, and then proceed clockwise to worship the remaining three faces before washing hands and face from the water basin. The first face represents career, the second face represents love, the third face represents wealth, and the fourth face represents peace and wisdom.
