Inside of the Guanyin temple
Wat Huay Pla Kung
Wat Huay Pla Kung, among the newest temples in Chiang Rai, is a tribute to Guanyin, also known as Kuan Yin, the Chinese Goddess of Mercy and Compassion. Inside the nine story structure is an elevator, staffed by young men in uniforms, that takes visitors to the seventh floor where one is treated to amazing white sculptures. Two other buildings at the temple make for a rich visit. The temple opened to the public in the late 20th century.
