06 JUNE 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: The main Buddha statue in Wat Bhoman Khunaram. Wat Bhoman Khunaram on Sathu Pradit Road in Bangkok, is considered the most beautiful Chinese temple in Thailand. The temple was built in a blend of Thai, Chinese and Tibetan styles. It was built in the 1959 and is a Mahayana Buddhist temple (most Thais are Theravada Buddihists). There is a monastery on the temple grounds and many boys go to the temple to become monks and learn Chinese Buddhist rituals and Chinese language. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
