Located just south of Chiang Rai, this temple is noted for its brilliance and beauty. The White Temple was designed by national artist Mr. Chalermchai Kositpipat. He states
“It was my strong intention to build a temple in imitation of heaven. I wanted it to be a heaven on earth. I built a main building in the Buddhist monastery. I wanted it to be like a house of the Buddha with white color representing His purity and white glass representing His wisdom shining all over the earth and the universe.”
