The Temple of the Dancing Tiger/ Blue Temple
The Blue Temple or Wat Rong Suea Ten is also known as “Temple of the Dancing Tiger” is designed by Putha Kabkaew, a student of the artist who built the White Temple.
The story was that before it was built, there was an ancient temple that stood here, and there were tigers that were said to have roamed freely over the grounds when it was abandoned nearly a century ago.
Painted with calming cerulean, the Blue Temple is adorned with gleaming gold trim and surrounded by blue and gold statues of magical Buddhist beings and mythological characters.
The centerpiece of inside the main temple is a Buddha statue, made from pearly porcelain that seems to manage to look kinda eerie and somewhat blueish in the prayer hall. He sits with one hand pointed to the ground, a representation of the moment he achieved enlightenment.
This is a beautiful temple to visit when you are in Chiang Rai too…. And don’t forget to end your visit here with some coconut ice cream!!!! It is just such a perfect and delicious treat on a hot day!!!

Wat Rong Suea Ten or Temple of the Dancing Tiger is located at Mae Kok Road, Rim Kok, Meuang Chiangrai, Thailand.
The magnificent blue interior with a large white Buddha make its high spirit. The temple walls, roof and statues are all covered in blue. The colour is symbolically associated with purity, wisdom and without materialism that the Buddhists aspire to. It was designed by Mr. Putha Kabkaew, a student of the artist who built the eccentric White Temple.

Wat Rong Suea Ten (Blue Temple
There are many golden Buddhas and a fair few white ones, but this was my first in blue.
@Wat Rong Suea Ten, or Blue Temple, in Chiang Rai, Northern Thailand. Figure in the fabulous Wat Rong Suea Ten, or Blue Temple, in Chiang Rai, Northern Thailand. This modern Buddhist temple is packed with ornate figures and carvings mostly in a blue colour scheme for a spectacular and very different looking experience to traditional golden finishes. It's also designed by a student of the architect who designed the famous White Temple in the same city. Both are well worth visiting.
