Nearby the Emerald temple is the temple of reclining Buddha which was built in 17th century by King Rama III. The temple has 46 m long buddha statue in a reclining position, with the head at about 15 m above the ground. Each foot is 3 m high and mother-of-pearl inlaid along the sole of the foot depicting 108 auspicious signs of Buddha. The spectacular gold plated buddha statue is a must see if you are in Bangkok.
