White Temple in Chiang Rai is definitely worth visiting. It is a stunningly beautiful and unique temple that stands out from other temples in Thailand due to its bright white color and intricate design. The temple, also known as Wat Rong Khun, was designed and built by the famous Thai artist Chalermchai Kositpipat, and it features elaborate carvings, sculptures, and murals that depict Buddhist teachings and modern-day pop culture. The temple grounds also include other interesting structures such as a golden restroom and a gallery displaying Chalermchai's art. The construction of the White Temple, also known as Wat Rong Khun, started in 1997 and is ongoing, as there are still parts of the temple that are being built. However, the main hall and some of the other buildings were completed and opened to the public in 1997. The temple has undergone several rounds of renovations and expansions over the years, with new structures and artworks added to the complex. In recent years, the temple has become one of the most popular tourist attractions in Thailand, attracting thousands of visitors every day. The best time to visit the White Temple in Chiang Rai is during the dry season, which typically runs from November to February. During this time, the weather is cool and pleasant, with temperatures ranging from around 15 to 25 degrees Celsius. The skies are clear, and there is very little rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the temple and its surroundings. However, it is also the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds and higher prices for accommodations and tours. If you prefer to avoid the crowds, you may consider visiting during the shoulder seasons of March to May or September to October, when there are fewer visitors and prices are lower. However, the weather can be hot and humid, with occasional rain showers. Avoid visiting during the monsoon season, which typically runs from June to August, as heavy rainfall and flooding can occur, and some parts of the temple may be closed for safety reasons.

Chiang Mai is a foreign city that is particularly suitable for independent travel. The travel services on Ctrip are comprehensive, with airport pick-up and drop-off services for only 10-30 RMB, half-day tours to "Doi Suthep Temple" and "Bhubing Palace", family-friendly activities such as "Mae Wang Elephant Camp" and "Night Safari", and the most recommended one-day tour to the White Temple and Black Temple in Chiang Rai. On the day of departure, there will be a special car to pick up and drop off at the hotel. Even if your English is poor, there will be a Chinese tour guide accompanying you throughout the journey. I chose to depart on Friday because as a foodie, I didn't want to miss the most famous Saturday and Sunday night markets in Chiang Mai, where there are various cheap and delicious snacks and exquisite handmade products for sale. Chiang Mai is the second largest city in Thailand. It not only has a leisurely pace, but also is full of ancient and profound cultural heritage. You can walk around in slippers on the streets and alleys, and if you get tired, you only need to take a tuk-tuk or songthaew for 20 baht (5 RMB) as transportation. Strolling through any street or alley in the ancient city of Chiang Mai, you can encounter magnificent or peaceful Buddhist temples. This small city with a population of 500,000 surprisingly has over 300 temples of all sizes, and you may get confused. However, there are several particularly famous temples that you must visit. The first "Wat Phra Singh". It is the largest Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, built in the 14th century, and is a perfect example of Lanna-style architecture. The first thing that catches your eye when entering the temple is the glittering golden Buddha statue, and the murals in the hall depict the ancient local costumes and customs. In the center of the temple is a 20-meter golden white tower, which is a strong representative style of Thai temples. The second "Qidilong Temple", also known as the Big Buddha Temple, is decorated with snakes and peacocks at the temple gate. There is a huge Buddha statue in the main hall, and the sense of space and the golden decorations inside the temple are very magnificent and exquisite. Along the path to the back square, there is a big Buddha pagoda. Although the ancient pagoda has been weathered by time and earthquakes, it appears majestic and magnificent under the reflection of the golden lotus flowers, with a simple and rustic charm. The third "Wat Chiang Man", the first temple in Chiang Mai, was built in 1300 and is the oldest temple in Chiang Mai. The best building in the temple is the stupa of the main temple, which is surrounded by 15 elephants at the base, giving it a simple and vicissitudinous appearance that contrasts sharply with the dazzling golden elephant spire. Not far from the city, the "Double Dragon Temple" on the Suthep Mountain, also known as the Suthep Temple, is named after two long dragons sitting and lying on both sides of the steps. It is a famous Buddhist summer resort in Thailand. The Thai royal summer palace is also built on Suthep Mountain. The Phuping Palace can be opened to the public when the royal family is not there from April to December. The palace has beautiful white walls and yellow tiles, and is located in the green mountains and trees, with its own beauty of coolness and peace. The two breathtaking temples in Chiang Rai, the White Temple and the Black Temple, are the highlights of a trip to Chiang Mai. The White Temple was built by designer Cheler Mchai at his own expense and was first established in 1997. The entire complex is pure white and lustrous, with only small pieces of polished glass as borders or decorations, which is quite different from the usual temples. The details, such as the flying birds on the eaves, the standing statues on the roof, the reclining turtles on the pillars, and the flowing clouds on the flags, all reflect the exquisite and delicate design, which is a masterpiece of art. The White Temple tells the story of how one can reach the Buddhist paradise by crossing the Naihe Bridge and avoiding the temptation of hell with a single-minded focus. Next to the White Temple is a "glittering" golden building, which is actually a toilet and is probably the most beautiful toilet in the world. The Black Temple is located in a forest of lush grass, consisting of many intricately constructed Thai temples made of original logs. The theme of the Black Temple is hell and death, with water buffalo skulls lined up on the ground, animal skins and large shells on the table, and a complete elephant skeleton and dried snake specimens on display. The creator, Mr. Thawan Duchanee, spent 36 years gradually designing and building this huge open-air, garden-style private art museum. His disciple and friend, a Buddhist artist, was inspired by him to create the still unfinished White Temple. In Chiang Mai, magnificent temples can be seen everywhere, filled with the mysterious charm of Eastern Buddhist culture. With cheap prices and convenient transportation, it is definitely a perfect place for you to temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and people you see with your eyes open or closed, and let yourself fly. Take some beautiful photos that will make you want to cry and savor them slowly.

Wat Rong Khun, dubbed the 'White Temple' is located within an expensive compound comprising of relic and meditation halls, temples and and an art gallery. You will need to follow the flow from the entrance at the bridge to cross a small lake with hundreds of outreaching hands. These hands symbolises unrestrained desires that leads to suffering, and denotes that the way to achieving happiness is by giving up greed and desire. It's exquisite architecture warrants atleast a visit here if you're in Chiang Mai. I especially love the art gallery where the artworks were truly inspiring. Kindly note that women should not wear short pants and no sleeveless shirt. LOCATION: 60 หมู่ที่ 1 Phahonyothin Road, Pa O Don Chai, Mueang Chiang Rai District, Chiang Rai 57000, Thailand Opening Hours: Monday - Sunday 8am - 5pm #thailand #awesomepic #passionpassport #chiangrai #tripblazers

Chiang Rai - one of the most popular destinations, and White Temple is one of the most visited temples in Thailand. It’s beauty and structure makes it stand apart from the other temples in Thailand. The main building can be crossed by walking over a bridge “the cycle of birth”. It is when a soul crosses over into a state of free of suffering. Where one can overcome worldly things like greed, temptations. after crossing the bridge you arrive at “the gates of heaven “ which is being guarded by Death and Rahu who will decide if you stay in heaven or hell. As you walk along the being you see many hands rising from the surface representing people in Hell. Dont forget to look out for the only woman who went to Hell in Style. #tripblazers #2023travelwish #whitetemple
