The White Temple at Chiang Rai. Honestly, not really a hit for me; too busy and somehow feels artificial compared to other temples I visited. The local bus ride was great though if a bit hectic.

Impressions of our visit to Wat Rong Khun (better know as the White Temple) near Chang Rai, Thailand.

It is a very new Buddhist temple (opened only in 1997) and created by artist Chalermchai Kositpipat. Read the Wiki page for some very unique features.

We had mixed feelings. The temple itself is beautiful, but did not feel like a temple. Sometimes more a Disney World vibe came over us.

By the way, the golden building is the toilet building.

For you #travel lovers, I took this photo at the #WhiteTemple or Wat Rong Khun which is a privately owned art exhibit in the style of a Buddhist temple in Pa O Don Chai, Mueang District, Chiang Rai Province, Thailand. It is owned by Chalermchai Kositpipat, who designed, constructed, and opened it to visitors in 1997. It is so amazing there. If you look closely, there are tiny mirrored tiles everywhere.
