    Hiking

    Many thousands of people look to the shrine every day and some give some money for the traditional dance group to swing their legs for. That brings luck.

    Hiking

    Nestled amidst skyscrapers, two major thoroughfares, the Skywalk, and the BTS Skytrain, lies one of Bangkok's most unusual places of worship.

    It's dedicated to the four-faced Buddha.

    Dancers perform there several times a day, asking for donations.
    Definitely worth a quick visit! :-)
