Main attraction of Wat Pho. Already existed before Bangkok became the capital. Means entry into Nirvana and the end of all reincarnations

Wat Pho is the oldest temple complex in Bangkok. Its origins date back to the time when the capital was in Ayutthaya, in the 16th century. Originally, Wat Pho was in the shadow of the old Royal Palace, which was on the other side of the Chao Phraya River. In the 18th century, King Rama I chose Wat Pho as his residence.
