Wat ban den in Chiangmai

Wat Ban Den is a beautiful Buddhist temple in Chiangmai, Thailand. The architecture of this temple has many Chinese features. With the statue of dragons, Chinese horoscopes, roosters and various other symbols are very present in Chinese culture. The temple is also known as the Blue Temple (different from the one in Chiang Rai) due to its blue roofs and I was very amazed by the beautiful Nagas and pagodas spread all over. There are at least 10 buildings spread all over the land, and they are actually still building more. Another thing I love about Chiangmai temples is the sound of their bell shaped wind chimes. Although a little bit far out from the city it's still quite worth the trip. Hope you will like it. #bangkoktrip

Chiang Mai Journey | Photo Backdrop of Blue and White Temples - The blue and white are an unmissable scenic feature of Chiang Mai. While most visitors prefer the white temples, I found the blue temples more photogenic against the sunlight. The place was very crowded when I got there. The best spot is the pagoda behind the temple. You can get brilliant photos from here.

Wat Ban Den

I recommend two temples in Chiang Mai. Wat Rong Khun (white temple) is so glorious and splendid that you can feel the devotion of the Thai people to their religion. When you get to Wat Ban Den (blue temple), try to take off your shoes and find a silent corner, then sit facing a figure of Buddha on your knees. Closing your eyes, you will feel as light as smoke.
