We visited the white temple, official name Wat Rong Klun, near Chang Rai
today. I honestly don't know how to describe it. White of course, with
so many glittering inlays that it's painful for the eyes, almost put on
my sunglasses. The carvings or statues are rather bizar in the trees
around the tempel you can find heads. The inside of the tempel is very
modern and up to date, on one of the paintings on the wall, we saw
Spiderman, Superman, Elvis, a Mignon but also the 9/11 attacks on New
York. I can only advice you to google this temple or ask us nicely
whether you can see our pics and enjoy some Thai food, coocked by me or
take out.

The same artist also has a clock tower in the city so we stopped there
as well on our way back to the hotel. Also saw it tonight when we took
the free shuttle from the hotel to the nightmarket and it was really
shining with all the lights pointed on it.
