We moved to another hotel called Asia Hotel.

On day 4, we had initially decided to visit Wat Pho, which was home to the Reclining Buddha. However, it was the monk's lunch break by the time we arrived there. Since we had about an hour ++ to spare, we had a detour.
We passed by a park while wondering around.
We were wondering around looking for someone to ask for the directions. An elderly man suggested several places for us to go and advised us to go on a Tuk Tuk.

So this is how a Tuk Tuk looks like from the front. It is an open-aired taxi and much smaller than the width of a car.

Before taking a ride on the Tuk Tuk, it is advisable to agree on a fare before driving off. Tuk Tuk drivers are well known to have raise up the prices of rides, especially towards foreigners.
Our first destination was to a temple.
This was not a tourist populated area and the temple was empty. Just a few monks and....
More cats!

Cats are extremely photogenic creatures. Unlike dogs, they are way less hyperactive and most of the time, they just ignore you.
Upon walking out of the temple, the Tuk Tuk man insisted on showing us turtles.

Next stop was a Jewellery Shop
It was around 2pm and we decided to return back to Wat Pho.
