Wat Rong Khun, known as 'White Temple', is a Buddhist temple in Pa O Don Chai, Chiang Rai province, Thailand.

'Durham Cathedral'- Britain's finest Norman Cathedral, which still dominates the city of Durham with its massive 11th century drum pillars and sturdy towers.

Fanjingshan Temples in China- Perching on a spur of rock deep in Wuling Mountains, these 2 Buddhist temples whose origins stretch back centuries seem almost impossible.
