Wat King Kaeo (Part 1)

Wat King Kaeo was somewhere we visited because it was near to Bangkok International Airport.

As we drove closer more could be seen in the distance.

One of the first things we came across after we had parked was a large Buddha.

After we had parked there was the usual places for offerings to be laid.

There were shops leading to the entrance but many seemed to be closed today.

Then we noticed that adjacent to the Buddha was the standard snake and steps.

I loved this statue - I wonder whether it meant something special?

Then there were lovely well kept gardens - as TripAdvisor mentions.

Then there was the main temple - a grand site.

And there were more temples to see.

There was a small Chedi.

More monk statues.

I have no idea what this statue is. There was so much I decided to divide the blog into 2 posts.
