Our final visit at Ayutthaya was Wat Sri Sanphet. This is a Wat placed at a city of ruins. These ruins were so ancient and historical, it figuratively blew my mind. May people piled small stones on walls as forms of prayer or meditation, many Buddha statues are broken everywhere. One Buddha head has actually fallen, and a tree has it’s roots grown around it. I was instructed to actually crouch and get low while taking a picture of this Buddha due to the fact I would be disrespecting Buddha, and all those who honor him if I held myself higher than he…

I, of course, agreed…
