I like the quiet smile of this Buddha a lot more than the cruelty at the Christian crucifixes. Achieve your piece of mind, this very old religion seems to tell us.

On the other hand, you see a lot of American culture that has already entered the land. Like this dinosaur-restaurant near Phuket.

Temples are called 'wat'. The biggest is the royal wat.

For the spirits of the river there  is a river-temple.

at the background you see a hospital.

Even a landing stage looks like a temple. The way the houses are built is invented to please the gods. Roofs seem to embrace the air.
