Wat Chedi Luang

Wat Chedi Luang, also known as the Temple of the Great Stupa, is famous for the large Lanna-style square stupa in the center of the temple, which was once the tallest and most spectacular building in northern Thailand. The four sides of the stupa are carved with exquisite naga and six elephant sculptures, five of which are newly carved cement products, while one retains some of the original features. Each side of the stupa has its own unique shape. Visitors cannot climb the stupa, but can walk around it to admire its majestic architecture and feel the weight of history and the passage of time. Tickets are required, THB 50 per person.
