Wat Rong Khun, mieux connu sous le nom de temple blanc de Thaïlande, a été construit avec une idée très simple. Son créateur, Chalermchai Kositpipat, voulait créer le plus beau temple du monde.

[EGYPT 29541] 'Architrave of astronomical ceiling in Hathor Temple at Dendera.' An architrave supporting the astronomical ceiling in the outer hypostyle hall of the Hathor Temple at Dendera is decorated with superbly crafted hieroglyphs. The falcon within a square is the hieroglyphic sign for the patron goddess of the temple: Hathor. In the central column the group of five signs below her name mention that she is the master of Junet (the Egyptian name for Dendera). The falcon placed above three vertical signs in the upper left corner spells the name of Harsomptus, the child-god who was parented by Hathor of Dendera and Horus of Edfu. The name 'Horus of Behdet' (Edfu) is spelled lower down in the same column by a falcon and the four signs to the left of it. He also appears in the right upper corner, but in this case 'Behdet' is written below the falcon. The astronomical ceiling consists in total of seven separate strips which are supported by six rows of columns with architraves (for an overview see pictures 29525 and 29539). The architrave in this picture is located between the first and second strip east from the central ceiling strip (see picture 29540). This part of the Dendera Temple was built during the Roman period (first century AD). Photo Mick Palarczyk.
Believe it or not, this is a real place – Wat Rong Khun, better known as the White Temple, is a Buddhist temple in Thailand that looks like it was placed on earth by a god. Though it may have involved divine inspiration, it was in fact designed by a man. Chalermchai Kositpipat, a Thai artist, designed the temple in 1997.
