Photographer’s Note

In the area next to the compound of the Royal Palace is the compound of the Silver Pagoda. So named because the floor is covered with over 5000 silver tiles weighing 1kg each. Inside are many many Buddhas of all differnt sizes and made from many different materials including a life size gold Buddha decorated with 9584 diamonds.
These pillars and paintings in this shot are in the courtyard area surrounding the Silver Pagoda and the paintings depict the epic of Ramayana, created around 1900.
