Wat Lan Khuat – The Million Bottle Temple, Sisaket
The original temple has been built by monks and is made of over 1.5 million empty recycled glass beer bottles. The construction was initiated in 1984 when the Buddhist monks began collecting bottles.
Decorated with multicolored bottles, this eco-friendly Buddhist temple has found an environmentally green way to reuse and recycle beer bottles.
Another very original temple in Sisaket is Wat Sombon
