Fascinating Blue Temple in Chiang Rai

If you came to Chiang Rai and visited the white temple, then do not stop and go to the blue temple! Yes, Chiang Rai is a real mecca of colored temples! The blue temple is located in the north of the city and it is quite young - its construction was completed in 2016.

The temple is a fascinating fusion of traditional Buddhist values and classic Thai architecture with extremely contemporary design choices. This modernism makes sense — the Blue Temple was designed by Putha Kabkaew, a student of the artist who built the eccentric White Temple.
