I recommend two temples in Chiang Mai. Wat Rong Khun (white temple) is so glorious and splendid that you can feel the devotion of the Thai people to their religion. When you get to Wat Ban Den (blue temple), try to take off your shoes and find a silent corner, then sit facing a figure of Buddha on your knees. Closing your eyes, you will feel as light as smoke.

Wat Ban Den, ChiangMai - Thailand. This is one of the remarkable temple in ChiangMai with 50 kilometers away from the city. The look of this temple is not the same as other temples as it seems to be more fancy. However, it is beautiful with its own style.

"Chiang Mai Blue Temple: A Sacred Place of Interwoven Dreams".
In the poetic scroll of Chiang Mai, the Blue Temple is like a dazzling sapphire, exuding a mysterious and charming light.
That intoxicating blue color shines with a dreamlike light in the sun, as if it is a fairyland from the fairy tale world. Stepping into the Blue Temple, the majestic architecture is magnificent, and the exquisite carvings are breathtaking. Every line and every pattern embodies the hard work and wisdom of the craftsmen.
The towers of the Blue Temple are towering into the clouds, and the statues of the twelve zodiac signs are lifelike, as if they are telling ancient legends. The mysterious beasts guard this sacred land, making people feel a power beyond the world. The wind chimes hanging on the eaves sway gently with the breeze, making a crisp and pleasant sound, like a wonderful movement played by nature.
Walking in the courtyard of the Blue Temple, the soul is surrounded by tranquility and peace. The ancient Buddha statues are solemn and solemn, and the compassionate eyes are watching every visitor. Here, time seems to stand still, the hustle and bustle of the world is left far behind, leaving only the clarity and peace of the heart.
Chiang Mai Blue Temple is a perfect fusion of art and faith, and a place for the soul to rest. It uses its unique blue charm to attract people from all over the world, allowing them to feel the profound cultural heritage of Thailand on this sacred land, and to find the tranquility and strength in their hearts. Let us enter the Blue Temple, immerse ourselves in this sacred place of interwoven dreams, and start a spiritual journey.

Thailand Chiang Mai.
It was my first time in Thailand, and I visited the famous Red, White, and Blue Temples. Next to the Blue Temple, there is a vendor selling coconut water ice cream, which is a must-try and perfect for photos. Although it was very hot that day, the sunlight was ideal for taking pictures. Elephants are a sacred symbol in Thailand and are incredibly cute, but please do not stand behind them as it is very dangerous.

Thailand, Chiang Mai, Blue Temple
The entire temple is a deep blue sapphire-colored Buddhist temple, resembling a gigantic piece of art. Not only the walls and roofs of the temple but also the Buddha statues exhibit this unique blue hue.
The blue of the Blue Temple is profound and solemn, a highly saturated blue that gives the temple a dazzling and magnificent appearance. The interior Buddha statues are exquisite, making it a Thai temple where traditional and modern art blend perfectly. This mysterious and profound blue symbolizes the purity and wisdom that Buddhists yearn for.

Wat ban den in Chiangmai
Wat Ban Den is a beautiful Buddhist temple in Chiangmai, Thailand. The architecture of this temple has many Chinese features. With the statue of dragons, Chinese horoscopes, roosters and various other symbols are very present in Chinese culture.
The temple is also known as the Blue Temple (different from the one in Chiang Rai) due to its blue roofs and I was very amazed by the beautiful Nagas and pagodas spread all over. There are at least 10 buildings spread all over the land, and they are actually still building more.
Another thing I love about Chiangmai temples is the sound of their bell shaped wind chimes. Although a little bit far out from the city it's still quite worth the trip. Hope you will like it.

Chiang Mai Journey | Photo Backdrop of Blue and White Temples - The blue and white are an unmissable scenic feature of Chiang Mai. While most visitors prefer the white temples, I found the blue temples more photogenic against the sunlight. The place was very crowded when I got there. The best spot is the pagoda behind the temple. You can get brilliant photos from here.

Makiyu.
The temple is called wat ban den. It is about forty kilometers away from the ancient city of Chiang Mai. It was previously unknown. In the 1990s, there was a Thai stilt in Tin, which began to gain fame.
is not the same as the pure blue of the Qinglan Blue Temple. The color here is more abundant, the red, blue, purple and green powders are combined together, and the sunlight is shining under the sunlight. It is really beautiful! The shape of the sculpture is also more lively, and there are twelve zodiac signs.
and there are very few tourists, all of them are locals in Thailand. The girls are very convenient in shape and the speed to go. It feels like they will fall again.
From the ancient city of Chiang Mai, you can get there, around 800-1000 miles, locals know this temple!
Bean..
In the small and beautiful Chiang Rai, the white temple and the black temple are famous. As everyone knows, there is a deep blue here. That is - Blue Temple Wat Rong Suea Ten.
The Blue Temple was designed by Phuttha Karbkaew, the apprentice of Mr. Xu Longcai, the owner of the White Temple. It was completed on January 22, 2016. So, it is a young and very new temple. Mr. Phuttha Karbkaew gave many ideal designs to the Blue Temple. He hoped that people would feel comfortable at first sight of the Blue Temple, which would be more intimate with the Buddha.
Surely, the blue temple beauty is very individual. Take the beast of the door as an example. The artist is particularly provocative and fierce, but it is similar to the beast in the black temple.
In particular, the blue temple can be photographed. White Temple can't be.
