The eighth wonder of Wat Pho, Phra Buddha Deva Patimakorn in Bangkok of Thailand
Situated in the main chapel, the eighth wonder of Wat Pho, Phra Buddha Deva Patimakorn is opposite to the  Grand Reclining Buddha image, the first wonder of Wat Pho in Bangkok of Thailand. The eighth one, about a few pace east of the first one, is the fascinating Buddha image as much as the former one is. Taking photo is permitted to visitors.
