I took this photo at the Temple of the Dawn in Bangkok, Thailand. The temple is also known as Wat Arun (Thai: วัดอรุณ) in local language. Wat means temple, Arun means dawn in English. Temple of the Dawn is in Thonburi district, west bank of the Chao Phraya River. There are ferries to get there from the other side of the Chao Phraya. Temple of the Dawn so called because when the first sunrise reflects the surface of temple, the view is breathtaking because the whole temple is decorated in colored ceramic. Temple of the Dawn is depicted on the back of the 10-baht coins. Check it out.
