I can't remember the name of this temple... I do know it is somewhere in Bangkok; but what really attracked me here where the two huge guardian statues.

They are called dvarapala, guardians of gates or doors, and are normally fearsome armed giants. I've seen a few in Thailand, and are one of my favourite kind of statues; and these too definitely stood out!
