3Wat Rong Khun, Thailand
Wat Rong Khun, commonly known as the White Temple, is a contemporary, unconventional Buddhist temple in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Designed by artist Chalermchai Kositpipat, the temple stands out for its gleaming white facade and intricate mirror work, symbolizing the purity of the Buddha. The temple’s surreal, almost ethereal appearance is further enhanced by its reflective ponds and detailed sculptures depicting Buddhist teachings.
