And is home to more than one thousand Buddha images, as well as one of the largest single Buddha. Decorated with gold plating on his body and mother of pearl on his eyes and the soles of his feet. I have also search some site where i learned a lot about massage and it works for me. And helped me a lot to take away stress.

Wat Po is Bangkok's largest temple, famous for its huge and beautiful reclining Buddha 46 metres long and covered in gold leaf. The Buddha's feet are 3 metres long and exquisitely decorated in mother-of-pearl illustrations of auspicious laksanas (characteristics) of the Buddha. As well as the reclining Buddha, Wat Po is also acknowledged as Thailand's first university and the place to learn Thai massage from the traditional source. Courses in traditional herbal medicine and Thai massage are available in English and Thai, and last between 7 to 10 days. Very interesting and educative information.
