The Temple Of Wat Rong Khun

Wat Rong Khun is a contemporary unconventional buddhist and Hindu temple in Chiang Rai, Thailand. It was designed by Chalermchai Kositpipat. Wat Rong Khun is different from any other temple in Thailand, as its assembly hall is designed in white color with some use of white glass.

Visitors will find it rather bizarre to find modern images throughout this temple. Images of the Predator from the Hollywood film, Spiderman, Batman, Keanu Reeves' character in the Matrix, rocket ships, etc. Nowadays, Wat Rong Khun is still being constructed.
