Silver Temple



Whoa! This place is nuts!

From Neatorama's 10 Most Amazing Temples in the World

Wat Rong Khun

Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai, Thailand is unlike any Buddhist temples in the world. The all-white, highly ornate structure gilded in mosaic mirrors that seem to shine magically, is done in a distinctly contemporary style. It is the brainchild of renowned Thai artist Chalermchai Kositpipat.


I don't know if we can make it to Chiang Rai - which is north and east of Chiang Mai but it might be a fun day trip out of Chiang Dao.
