Explore the Buddhist Art of Beautiful Temples in Chiang Rai

🏕Rong Suea Ten Temple: In the past, this area was once home to an abandoned temple. About 80-100 years ago, there were not many houses or people living here, so there were many wild animals, especially tigers. Villagers often saw tigers jumping across the water channels, hence the name 'Rong Suea Ten' (Dancing Tiger Channel). 🏡As the community in this area expanded, the villagers came together to restore the abandoned temple, establishing Rong Suea Ten Temple as a spiritual center for the villagers and a place for religious ceremonies. 🖼The main attraction within the temple is the vihara (assembly hall), built and designed by Mr. Phuttha Kabkaew (Sala Nok), a local Chiang Rai artist and disciple of Master Chalermchai Kositpipat, who absorbed the Buddhist art style from Master Chalermchai. ♨️Rong Suea Ten Temple: 306 Moo 2, Rim Kok Subdistrict, Mueang Chiang Rai District, Chiang Rai Province 🎯Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/cgFwse38Dhg8yxto8 🕖Opening Hours: 07:00 – 20:00

B2 Chiang Rai Boutique & Budget Hotel

Start your Chiang Rai trip with ease by taking Sombat Tour's VIP Wiang Ping Bus from Mo Chit in the evening, arriving at Chiang Rai's second bus terminal at 7 a.m. From there, grab a Grab ride into the city for less than 80 baht. Check in to the B2 Hotel in advance, avoiding the 2 p.m. deadline. The room rate is just 315 baht per night. After packing up, head out for a hearty breakfast of khanom jeen nam ngiao and a large bowl of khao soi nuea. Both are just 110 baht. After we were full, we strolled around the city market and unexpectedly stumbled upon Wat Mung Muang, a beautiful temple hidden in the middle of a busy market. We then took a songthaew to the renowned landmark, Wat Rong Khun, which lived up to its reputation. We spent a delightful time exploring the area. Return to the city center to rest, and the next morning, we went to another highlight of Chiang Rai, Wat Rong Suea Ten, whose vibrant blue color contrasted strikingly against the sky. We ended our trip with a visit to the Kok River cafe, "Chiwit Thammada," which offers a peaceful atmosphere, a cool breeze, and a romantic view. We ordered a mango cheesecake, which made our eyes widen with the first bite. It was so delicious, I had to say it was over the top. This 2-day, 1-night trip was both worthwhile and relaxing, and I got to see Chiang Rai's charming side without rushing. Plus, I got a return ticket from Thai Vietjet, booked through a promotion on the Trip app, for just 340 baht (oh my god!). It was an incredible deal! Anyone who visits and gets a round-trip ticket at this price is guaranteed to have change left over for two tickets. #ChiangRai #TravelThailandHalfPrice #RecommendedHotel #ChiangRaiTravel #WatRongKhun #WatRongSueaTen #SimpleLife #CafeReview
