The second part contains the temple grounds, the ordination hall, and the national museum. The ordination hall is beautifully decorated with ornate gold carvings that depict various scenes that are of significance in the Buddhist faith. These carvings are then surrounded by intricate inlays of tiles of various shades of blue, silver, and green. One must see the building with one's own eyes to fully appreciate the beauty and grandeur. It was at this ordination hall that his majesty the king of thailand presided over the opening ceremony by receiving rights to commemorate the opening of Wat Bot on June 9, 1976.
