Chiang Rai’s Blue Temple: A Dazzling Dream in Sapphire

Step into a world of vibrant colour and spiritual calm at Wat Rong Suea Ten, better known as the Blue Temple. Located just a few kilometres from central Chiang Rai, this stunning temple stuns visitors with its deep sapphire walls, gold accents, and contemporary design. Completed in 2016 by a student of the artist behind the White Temple, the Blue Temple blends traditional Lanna architecture with modern artistic flair. Inside, a luminous white Buddha statue glows under a richly painted celestial ceiling, creating a serene yet surreal atmosphere. Less crowded but equally photo-worthy, Wat Rong Suea Ten is a must-see for travellers craving beauty, peace, and a touch of the extraordinary. 🕘 Open daily | 🎟️ Free entry | 📍Perfect for a short visit or a temple-hopping tour with the White Temple and Black House. #thailandtrip #historicallandmarks #localguides #watrongsueaten
