🤍 Wat Huay Pla Kang – Chiang Rai’s Giant Goddess of Mercy

Perched on a hill just a short drive from Chiang Rai city, Wat Huay Pla Kang is one of Northern Thailand’s most impressive temple complexes. 🛕✨ It’s famous for its colossal white Guan Yin statue — over 20 stories tall — which gracefully watches over the valley. 🌄🙏

🌟 What to see at Wat Huay Pla Kang:
• The Guan Yin Statue 🕊️ – visitors can ride an elevator inside to the top for stunning panoramic views 🌅
• The 9-tier pagoda 🔔🔥 – decorated with golden details and dragon sculptures 🐉
• The main temple hall 🏛️ – filled with intricate Buddhist art and statues
• Peaceful gardens and mountain surroundings 🌿⛰️
