Chiang Mai-Chiang Rai: White Temple-Bann Dam Museum-Blue Temple - Lunch

Duration: 07.00-19.00 hrs. What to see Mae Kachan Hot Spring and Geyser Visit Mae Khachan Hot Spring to dip your feet into warm, soothing mineral water. Look out for locals selling chicken eggs that you can boil in the hot springs, a popular activity among visitors and residents. White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) Rong Khun Temple is unique from other temples in that it has been constructed entirely in a radiant white color with sparking reflections from mirrored glass mosaics embedded in the white plaster. The temple is the idea of Mr. Chalermchai Kositpipat, one of Thailand most renowned artists, who wanted to build a temple all in white to signify the purity of Lord Buddha. The artist continues to puts his religious belief and desire to enrich Buddhism in Thailand into his contemporary art design. BAAN DAM MUSEUM (Black Museum House) 207 Km. drive from the middle of Chiang Mai city to Baan Dam (Black House) is the unique creation of national artist, Thawan Duchanee. Part art studio, part museum, part home, Baan Dam is an eclectic mix of traditional northern Thai buildings interspersed with some outlandish modern designs. Baan Dam is a thought-provoking combination of sanuk, the surreal and the sombre and whilst it’s fair to say that some of the artwork and themes on display won’t be to everybody’s liking, I’d still recommend checking out the Black House if you are visiting Chiang Rai. BLUE TEMPLE (WAT RONG SUE TEN) Chiang Rai Blue Temple or Wat Rong Seua Ten is located in Rong Suea Ten in the district of Rimkok a few kilometers outside Chiang Rai. It is a recent temple which is still under construction even if its main hall is now completed. It is above all its magnificent blue interior with a large white Buddha that marks the spirits. The paintings are reminiscent of the style of what you can see inside the White Temple (Wat Rong Khun). The great standing Buddha, also white, standing in front of the back, is also superb. Between the White Temple, the Black House and the Blue Temple, Chiang Rai is definitely the city of colorful temples! ********************************************************** Pick up area approximately time (please check again after booking) Zone Sri Poom 7.00-7.30 am.
