A Wat in Luang Prabang, Laos. I have seen countless Wats (aka Temples) all over SE Asia, however, I have yet to actually step inside any. (well, with the exception of Angkor Wat)

I told some guys about my lack of Wat visits yesterday and they said, "What the hell have you been doing". Their surprise reminded me of how much I've been able to see and experience by avoiding the traditional tourist trails in each city I visit. Mostly I've spent my days eating at markets, street stalls, and food courts. I'm certainly not opposed to visiting Wats, I just haven't gotten around to it.
