The Journey Continued..

Our journey continued..
 
We had walked through Chinatown and reached our pier to take on a boat.. Our next destination was to visit King Rama I Statue!
 
Something strange.. We just couldn’t locate the statue even we were right there according to the map!

Before we realized we were actually behind the statue! =.=+ No close shot! The statue was closed for upgrading works..

With no aim, we continued to walked and found one green monument stood high.. Not far from King Rama I Statue.

A magnificent temple! But the first-encounter was unexpectedly a Chinese Tian Hou Temple within the wat!

The temple has four facades, each decorated with golden Garuda, Indra and his 3-headed elephant, Hanuman and Brahma.. Hehe.. I hope I was right about this.. :P
