Temples Everywhere

So the question is how many temples does a city need? You can't walk more than a few hundred metres before you come across one -- some more ornate than others, although all broadly similar. Unsurprisingly also lots of monks in their almost dayglo orange robes.

I took a lot of pictures of temples today, probably enough for this trip!

Walking around the old city today was lovely and hot. A welcome change to the miserable Autumn/Winter weather at home. Thankfully I didn't make the novices mistake of not putting any sunblock on. As everybody knows you also have to stay hydrated in hot climates, so by having a mid-afternoon bottle of Chang in a random bar I ensured I didn't succumb to heat stroke (and inadvertently helped out a Premiership rival!). I'm also drinking Chang now, but it's Chang water.
