Life around Wat Mahabut in Bangkok
04 JANUARY 2012 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A man paddles his boat on Khlong Phra Khanong near Wat Mahabut. The temple was built in 1762 and predates the founding of the city of Bangkok. Just a few minutes from downtown Bangkok, the neighborhoods around Wat Mahabut are interlaced with canals and still resemble the Bangkok of 60 years ago. Wat Mahabut is a large temple off Sukhumvit Soi 77. The temple is the site of many shrines to Thai ghosts. Many fortune tellers also work on the temple's grounds. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
