Asia remains one of the most-traveled frontiers for backpackers from the western world. And with Hinduism, Taoism, Buddhism originating from this corner of the world, there’s plenty of energy to receive, calm to be had, and wonders to marvel at in places of worship such as temples. They, after all, serve as refuge for people finding peace and balance in life.

Temples differ in build and structure but its true essence remains intact; constructed as a haven from the outside world, tourists wouldn’t feel estranged while visiting these temples as these structures welcome people from all walks of life. Here are just some of the most beautiful ones in Southeast Asia.
