Mural Painting
Location: Temple of the Emerald Buddha, Bangkok, Thailand
There are 178 panels in all. They were originally painted when the temple was first constructed in 1783, but exposure to the elements requires constant maintenance. You'll note that the architectural elements in the panels, such as palaces and temples, are adapted from the real palaces and temples of the capital.
