📍 Wat Rong Khun (White Temple), Chiang Rai, Thailand

The White Temple is a stunning and contemporary Buddhist temple known for its unique white exterior and intricate design. It was created by artist Chalermchai Kositpipat and is a significant cultural and tourist attraction. Most things in the temple have hidden meanings and some cool pop-culture references! Definitely very unique. 🕗Open every day from 08:00 to 17:00 💵 Entrance fee is 100 Thai baht (~$2,5) Tips for visiting: 🚁No drone zone: Flying drones in the temple's area is strictly prohibited without permission. Don't give tourists a bad reputation by ignoring the rules and trying to fly your drone out of sight. 🥻Modest dress code: As with many temples in Thailand, it's important to dress modestly. Avoid shorts, sleeveless shirts, and low-cut tops. They check pretty strictly at the entrance. ➡️Follow the direction of travel: You can only cross the bridge at the entrance once. Security was telling people off over the loudspeaker when they tried to cross back. It's also against the spirit of the place, you are only supposed to cross hell once. 👟Footwear: You'll need to remove your shoes before entering the main temple building, so it's a good idea to wear easy-to-remove footwear. 📸Arriving early doesn't really help here: There was already a queue at opening time. You're better off just lining up to cross the bridge if you want to get your perfect photo. I hope this is helpful! #whitetemplechiangrai #thailand #travelwithme #travelthailand #beautiful_thailand #chiangrai #chiangraitravel
