The scary wat Sudtiwararam

Sad news again. My friend's dad passed away. He had a stroke and passed away after a by-pass operation.

Though, the scary part for me is the temple where the funeral is held. It's Wat Sudtiwararam. Well, maybe one of the typical temples in the inner Bangkok. The City has surrounded and encircled the temple. Houses and buildings around the temple were like using the same wall with the temple's. The temple also wants to be able to hold many funerals I guess. Salas or shelters for funeral were so clustered. I had to walked passed many funerals before I could get through to my friend's father funeral. What's more, the place was the sala closest to the cremation place...

It was so scary. When I left the place, met my sister, and talked to mum on the phone, I cried! I don't know really how can people live around the cremation place. I really thought to myself, if I will be really ok living in Thailand...
