White Temple, Chiang Rai

a

I’ve seen my fair share of temples around Southeast Asia but the one I’ve been dying to see is the Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Chalermchai Kositpipat’s masterpiece is the most magnificent, strange and beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.

INSANE DETAILS!

You have to walk through “Hell” to get to “Heaven”.

Creepy, cool surprises

There are 2 parts of the Wat Rong Khun, the temple and Kositpipat’s gallery. Unfortunately they don’t allow photo taking in the gallery but you can imagine how inspired and magical his art is. Below are some prints I bought at the gift shop.
