There's a temple near the entrance to Chinatown in Bangkok called Wat Traimit. We hunted it down 12 years ago, and it looked like this.
Nowadays, it looks a bit fancier - here's what it looks like now.

Since it houses a 5.5 ton solid 18 carat gold Buddha, it probably makes sense that it has a fancier temple to hold it these days. I didn't recognize the new temple this time around until I looked it up.
