Chiang Mai> Chiang Rai Temples(White/Red/Blue) Day Tour

Discover the beauty of Chiang Rai on a day trip from Chiang Mai. Visit the White Temple, the Blue Temple, and the Wat Huai Pla Kang
Start your day bright and early as you depart from Chiang Mai City in a comfortable air-conditioned van.

Stop at the Mae Khachan Hot Springs, a popular rest area for travelers heading toward Chiang Rai. This natural hot spring offers a perfect opportunity to stretch your legs and relax.

Arrive at Wat Rong Khun, often referred to as the White Temple. Designed by the renowned Thai artist Chalermchai Kositpipat, this breathtaking modern temple is known for its dazzling white façade, which symbolizes the purity of the Buddha. Every corner of the temple is adorned with intricate details, combining traditional Buddhist symbolism with contemporary elements, including references to pop culture.

After exploring Wat Rong Khun, sit down and enjoy a delicious lunch at a nearby restaurant. Then, head to Wat Huai Pla Kang, a unique and striking temple complex that stands out for its mix of traditional and modern architectural styles. This temple is often compared to China’s pagodas due to its giant statue of Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy, which towers over the temple grounds at an impressive height of 69 meters (226 feet).

This serene temple complex is less crowded than the White Temple, offering a peaceful escape where you can take in the spiritual ambiance. You can also take an elevator inside the statue to the top, where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and the city of Chiang Rai.

Wat Huai Pla Kang is not just about the grandeur of the giant Guan Yin statue. The complex includes a beautiful 9-tiered pagoda, intricately decorated with dragons and other mythological creatures, as well as lush gardens and smaller shrines where you can pay respects. Spend time wandering through the temple grounds and absorbing the tranquility that radiates from this sacred space.

The final stop is the mesmerizing Wat Rong Suea Ten, also known as the Blue Temple. Unlike the White Temple, which is striking in its purity, the Blue Temple captivates visitors with its bold, vibrant colors. The deep blue hues of the temple’s exterior and interior represent wisdom, and the golden accents add a sense of majesty to the structure.

Designed by a disciple of Chalermchai Kositpipat, the Blue Temple reflects a modern take on traditional Thai architecture. The temple’s name, which translates to “Temple of the Dancing Tiger,” is linked to local legends that say the area was once inhabited by wild tigers. Inside, you’ll find an impressive white Buddha statue seated amidst a backdrop of intricate blue and gold artwork. The temple’s ceiling and walls are adorned with exquisite murals that depict scenes from the Buddha’s life and teachings.

Wat Rong Suea Ten is a peaceful and lesser-known gem, offering a serene atmosphere for reflection and photography. The dazzling blue color scheme and artistic details make this temple an Instagram-worthy stop, and it’s an ideal way to wrap up the day.
