Wordpress: get attached images and show them inside post

Question

I want to show attached images inside the post .. Just like

<a href"LINK TO FULL SIZE IMAGE"><img src"LINK TO THUMB"></img></a>

I get the following from codex.wordpress but how to tell the code to use large image link with <href and thumb link with <img

<?php 
$attachment_id = 8; // attachment ID

$image_attributes = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $attachment_id ); // returns an array
?> 

<img src="<?php echo $image_attributes[0]; ?>" width="<?php echo $image_attributes[1]; ?>" height="<?php echo $image_attributes[2]; ?>">

Answer 1

You can use wp_get_attachment_link instead of wp_get_attachment_image_src :

echo wp_get_attachment_link($attachment_id, 'large');
