Wat Rong Khun (White Wat)

White Temple
Originally uploaded by Aishihik

The construction of this magnificent temple started in 1997. The entire outside is white washed with inlayed clear-mirrored chips. The striking difference from this temple to others we have see is how the architect and artist depicts the worlds modern struggles along with ancient Buddha drawings. Spiderman, bombs, missiles, spaceships, war, electronic devices are all carefully depicted in the wall murals.
