Here are some very famous Buddha Statues from Ragon, Myanmar in South East Asia.

This photo above is a very small part of the huge temple where all the statues and structures are located. People come from around the world to meditate her and donate money for respect, good fortune, good health, and a happy life.

Please feel free to judge my photographs as you wish, it helps me to learn what others really like in a my photos. So when I take photographs and travel to other countries I have a good idea what everyone really likes.

(Photo below #4) - if you look real close at the very bottom middle you can see the heads of monks going into a tunnel below the statues to meditate. These are very large statues.

These were difficult to rate. Honestly they're all awesome Robert. I thought the gold in number 4 was a little overwhelming but seeing how large those statues are is amazing.

I personally like shots where there are locals in the picture. Great photos - when did you visit? If recently, how is the current political situation?
