Wat Pho Bangkok means the temple of Reclining Buddha because of the Buddha Reclining inside the temple. Wat means Temple, a sacred place. The figures in Wat Pho are so large that they bring tourist attraction towards this temp1le. English speaking guides are also available there in case you want to get more in history.
To visit Wat Pho try to wear clothes which show less skin, Shoulders and skin should be covered till knees. When you reach the temple take off your shoes outside and some people buy a bowl of coins at the entrance of the hall which on the way there is a 108 bronze ball. You drop the coins in there. The coins make a lovely sound and in the future help the temple and monks to renovate.
