Wat Rong Khun, Chiang Rai

Wat Rong Khun or “White Temple” is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Chiang Rai. Designed by Professor Chalermchai Kositpipat, it emphasizes the beauty of contemporary art mixed with Buddhist concepts. The entire temple is white. Overall, it looks unusual and interesting. The highlight is the bridge to the chapel, which has a demon hand and many detailed sculptures. It is suitable for those who like to take pictures or are interested in art. Photography is prohibited inside the chapel. The paintings inside are both Buddhist and modern culture (such as superheroes, cartoon characters), which some people may feel is incompatible with the temple. However, it has an interesting artistic perspective. • Free admission for Thais, 100 baht for foreigners. • Open daily from 08.00 - 17.00 hrs. • There are fewer people in the morning than in the morning and afternoon. #Chiangrai #WatRongKhun #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck

Wat Rong Khun - White Temple

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
