Up bright and early today to visit the Old City, which was a sight to behold. Aside from the manic, smoky seedier side of the Asian city there is an older and more beautiful part, with old temples filled with gold (check out the Reclining Buddha which is made out of solid gold!!) and grand palaces. Buddhist monks live in many of the temples and hold prayers a few times a day and so that was interesting to see - although felt a bit guilty standing there shooting pics like a pap...
