Wat Klang

As you enter the temple grounds, there is a little under-cover section on the right with more statues as well as rows and rows of what I could only assume are offering bowls.  There was also a stunning display of glass figurines of all the different animals of the Zodiac with more offering bowls in front of them.  This section leads to the indoor section were an ancient-looking monk resides.  I have been told that people come to see this monk to have their fortunes told. He will read their auras and their palms and is said to be very wise and enlightened.

While admiring the Zodiac figurines we were approached by a man visiting the temple who introduced himself to us and proceeded to tell us a bit more about the temple.  I don't remember the man's name, but he had some kind of military background and was very friendly and helpful.  He informed us that the thing that Wat Klang is the most well known for is it's magic.  He also asked us to join him in having a meal with the monk, but as we had already eaten and were quite thoroughly intimidated by our lack of knowledge of Buddhist customs, we thanked him and politely declined. We were, after all, on a mission of a different kind.
