Temple designed by Thai artist Chaloemchai Khositphiphat, renowned for his murals depicting the life of Buddha.

This white temple is a sumptuous contemporary architectural work by Thai artist Chaloemchai Khositphiphat. Started in 1997, it is encrusted with thousands of pieces of mirror. The temple sparkles in the sun and gives an immaculate appearance. It withstood the earthquake of 2014! Inside a mural representing the life of Buddha, where heterogeneous characters like Spiderman, Kung Fu Panda or Darth Vader are mixed.

Oeuvre d'art à visiter. Étrange car fabriqué avec des milliers de morceaux de miroir et toit en blanc. A in côté plus futuriste et artistique que religieux . Ce temple vaut vraiment le détour.

Un temple très étrange tout en blanc, un peu futuriste lorsque l'on entre à l'intérieur, par des peintures au mur qui auraient pu être du Dali. A l'intérieur du site on peut visiter le musée qui est très intéressant, par les œuvres exposées.
En souvenir nous avons déposé un petit cœur avec notre inscription, sur les milliers et millions de cœurs déjà accrochés sur des cônes au milieu du parc.
Très belles visites à recommander si vous passer par Chiang Rai.

c'est un magnifique endroit. Difficile de décrire l'émotion ressentie, mais c'est grandiose et très étonnant.

a visit is essential, this set of several buildings, some of which currently under construction. An amazing artistic creation certainly which attracts crowds but it would be a shame not to make the trip. You will appreciate the effects of light on the thousands of mirrors embedded in the walls and even after having seen the photos once in front of you will be bluffed!!!
it takes a large hour for the visit. free entry

Le temple est une attraction touristique interessante! N'y aller pas pour le côté religieux (avec les dessins de Batman ou Hulk à l'intérieur, ça ne semble pas très sérieux). L'architecture (et l'effet des miroirs) est toutefois impressionnant! Le temple ferme entre midi et 13h = photo sans touristes!
