Wat Arun

In Bangkok there is a very old Buddhist temple named Wat Arun. There is a tower there called a stupa or chedi. It is quite high. The decorations on it are made from pieces of crockery. You can climb about half-way up the stupa but it is very steep. If you look in the second picture you will see that people hold onto the stair rails with two hands because they are afraid of falling.

Maybe you could come and visit me in Bangkok. Do you think you would like to climb the stupa?
