Visit this Amazing Spin on Recycling and Support the Monks Who Built it
Years ago the Heineken Beer company looked at reshaping its beer bottle to be a useful building block. It never happened, so Buddhist monks from Thailand's Sisaket province took matters into their own hands and collected a million bottles to build the Wat Pa Maha Chedi Kaew temple.
Even the washrooms and the crematorium are built of bottles, a mix of green Heineken and brown local Chang beer.
You can show your support for this major environmental commitment by visiting these activist monks in Thailand’s Sisaket province. And it’s an amazing photo opp.
The temple is located between Surin and Ubon Ratchathan in Northeastern Thailand.
Ask any taxi driver in Bangkok about this unique temple. Most of them are from the area near the now famous temple complex.
