Hi Gerard. This is a good picture of this strange temple, which always photographs well. It has been covered on TE before by Axiotea Chriasak and myself. I can't quite agree with your note that it represents contemporary Thai style ( Rama 9th) To me it is entirely eccentric and represents nothing more than the eccentricity of Churlumchai, its' designer financier and builder. To me it looks more like a confectionary creation (meringue) than a building of stone. However, yours is nice to photograph and your picture presents this odd structure very well. regards kevin

Hello Gerard,
A good composition of this lovely building, which seems as if it might have been constructed from icing sugar. I like the point of view and the contrasting tones and textures offered by the lawn. The reflection is a nice bonus.

Wooooow, Gerard, it look like snow - I love that temple.
I will be in Chiang Rai in April, I have to keep the name and I hope I will be able to visit this marvelous place also.
Thanks for sharing it with us, bye

Salut Gérard
On dirait un édifice bâti en sucre.
Le point de vue est intéressant; j'aurais cependant sous exposé un chouya :)
Amitiés
