Temple Hopping Like a Pro in Mueang

#summervacay So, I went on a mini temple crawl in Mueang Chiang Rai and wowww, this little city seriously knows how to impress. First stop was the iconic Wat Rong Khun (aka The White Temple). It's like stepping into a snowy fairytale, but make it Buddhist and mind-blowing. Totally Insta-worthy. And just when I thought I’d seen it all, Wat Huay Pla Kang hit me with that massive white statue of Guan Yin and a view that goes on forever. Took the lift up inside the statue, yep, that’s a thing, and got a crazy panoramic view. Each temple has its own personality, and hopping from one to another is just pure magic. No entry fees most of the time, super chill vibes, and lots of photo ops. Chiang Rai, you sneaky little gem, you’ve got my heart.
