Chiang Rai, Thailand’s northernmost city, is home to many distinct and remarkable Buddhist temples. Among them includes Wat Rong Khun (The White Temple) – known for its all-white exterior symbolizing purity and enlightenment, and Wat Rong Suea Ten (The Blue Temple) – captivating visitors with its deep sapphire hues, golden accents, and intricate murals.
Cu Chi Tunnels
An extensive underground network stretching over 200 kilometers (approx. 120 miles), these tunnels served as living quarters, supply routes, and hiding spots for Vietnamese soldiers during the Vietnam War. Today, visitors can explore sections of the tunnel, learn about wartime life, and see the ingenious traps used during the conflict. For a small fee, you can also use the firing range, shooting live rounds from guns used in the war.
