Life around Wat Mahabut in Bangkok
04 JANUARY 2012 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A pigeon takes off as a longtailed boat takes passengers up Khlong Phra Khanong past Wat Mahabut in eastern Bangkok. The temple was built in 1762 and predates the founding of the city of Bangkok. Just a few minutes from downtown Bangkok, the neighborhoods around Wat Mahabut are interlaced with canals and still resemble the Bangkok of 60 years ago. Wat Mahabut is a large temple off Sukhumvit Soi 77. The temple is the site of many shrines to Thai ghosts. Many fortune tellers also work on the temple's grounds. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
