White Temple - - - formerly known as Bailong Temple, is the most famous Buddhist temple in Thailand, located in the small Thai city of Qinglai. Because it is all white, it is commonly known as the White Temple. Investors and builders of the White Temple are Chalermchai, a great Thai artist. Master Cha is a devout Buddhist, proficient in Buddhist art. His inspiration for building a white temple comes from a dream in which the Buddha said to him - "Your responsibility is to build a white temple. Master Cha began to build a white temple in 1997, and gradually built a magnificent temple from a wasteland with his own efforts. And the scenery of the White Temple is indeed a work of apocalypse. It is magnificent and magnificent. It is totally a super work of art born out of nowhere. There are Buddhas in the White Temple, various Buddhist protection laws, demons and ghosts, and solitary ghosts. You can experience life and death, hope and despair here. So the whole field is extremely sacred and solemn.

    4/5Excellent

    The temple lived up to its picturesque portrayal, though I recommend timing your visit to avoid the crowds. The site was overwhelmingly packed, detracting from its potential tranquility and giving it a heavily touristic feel. Fortunately, my photography skills—and evidently those of others sharing their experiences online—managed to capture its essence, presenting a serene facade that contrasted sharply with the bustling atmosphere I encountered.

    4/5Excellent

    Touristy but nice, can roaming around and take picture for free. Only pay if we want to go inside the temple. Easy to reach every hour (morning-afternoon) by public bus from Chiang rai bus terminal.

    A beautiful temple. Most of the temples in Thai come with golden color but this one is really white and when you take a closer look it was so detailed. once it catches the sunlight it becomes more beautiful and shiny

Nestled in northern Thailand, this ethereal structure captivates with its gleaming white facade and intricate design. Reflecting in a nearby pond, the temple creates a tranquil ambiance. Surrounded by lush greenery and against the backdrop of the Thai sky, the White Temple embodies both cultural richness and natural beauty, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a serene escape in a breathtaking setting.
