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.

Une vrai curiosité toute blanche dans un pays de couleurs et de dorures. Des représentations inhabituelles de l'enfer, du tabagisme, de l'alcoolisme. Le séisme de 2014 a endommagé le temple et les visites à l'intérieur ne sont pas toujours possibles Mais les extérieurs valent le déplacement. A voir aussi l'expo de peinture du même artiste tout près du temple.
On adore ou on déteste !
