Le Wat Rong Khun (en thaï : วัดร่องขุ่น) est un temple situé à 13 km au sud de Chiang Rai, en Thaïlande, il est communément appelé le temple blanc. Il a été construit par Chalermchai Kositpipat (en), un artiste thaï de renom qui a voulu créer un tribut durable à Rama IX, ancien roi de Thaïlande décédé en 2016, et également honorer sa ville natale.
En rupture avec la plupart des autres temples, celui-ci est d’une blancheur extraordinaire, pour symboliser la pureté du bouddhisme, et incrusté de morceaux de miroir pour suggérer la réflexion de l’illumination. Pour y accéder, le visiteur doit d'abord passer entre deux crocs géants, puis devant un lac parsemé de créatures des enfers.
Il devait être achevé en 2008, mais ne sera terminé qu'en 20701. L’ensemble comprendra neuf bâtiments, qui constitueront la vision du paradis bouddhiste sur terre telle qu’imaginée par l'artiste. Le financement du temple est assuré par la vente des peintures de celui-ci, exposées et vendues dans un bâtiment annexe.
Tremblement de terre[modifier | modifier le code]
Le 5 mai 2014, à 18h08 (heure locale), le temple est endommagé par un tremblement de terre (en)2. Il doit alors fermer indéfiniment3 et pour son créateur, il doit être démoli pour des raisons de sécurité4.
Cependant, après une visite d'experts, il apparaît que tous les bâtiments sont structurellement sains. Chalermchai annonce alors qu'il se donne deux ans pour redonner la beauté originelle au temple également et que celui-ci sera de nouveau ouvert aux visiteurs5.

Here I tried to mix cool blue and cyan tones with a little bit of lightweight pink and magenta. Of course this is not a true infrared image, mostly because of the filter - it blocks most of the visible spectre, but not all of it.
Cited as a world heritage site, the complex is composed of numerous temples and gardens that are absolutely stunning. The Bentendo Hall is popular for its beautiful pond during autumn.
There is a legend that Javanese people always told about this temple. The legend, a Prince named Bandung Bondowoso loved Roro Jonggrang. Not because of love, Jonggrang make a request; Bondowoso must build her a thousand temples in only one night. The Prince entered into meditation and conjured up a multitude of spirits from the earth. The request was fulfilled almost before Jonggrang ask villagers to pound a rice and make a big fire like atmosphere that form morning, attempting to make the prince and the spirits believe that the sun was about to rise. Fooled by the light and the sounds of morning time, the supernatural helpers fled back into the ground. But the prince was furious about the trick and in revenge he cursed Roro Jonggrang to stone. She became the last and the most beautiful of the thousand statues. Although the statue cannot be seen in this picture :P

This ancient and most lovely church is tucked away in the Temple area of London, known as the Inns of Court, notable for the number of barrister's chambers it houses. But if you get the chance to stop by on a warm, sunny day then you should make the time. It's a lovely spot and it's a lovely church.
Here's the history of the church as per the nerds at Wikipedia: "The Temple Church is a church in the City of London located between Fleet Street and the River Thames, built by the Knights Templar as their English headquarters. It was consecrated on 10 February 1185 by Patriarch Heraclius of Jerusalem. During the reign of King John it served as the royal treasury, supported by the role of the Knights Templars as proto-international bankers. It is jointly owned by the Inner Temple and Middle Temple Inns of Court, bases of the English legal profession. It is famous for being a round church, a common design feature for Knights Templar churches, and for its 13th- and 14th-century stone effigies. It was heavily damaged by German bombing during World War II and has since been greatly restored and rebuilt."
