Wat Phra That Chom Pho (Wat Aranyawiwet Khiri), Chiang Rai Province was built in 2263, but no other evidence has been found, except for evidence from ancient objects such as a pagoda, Buddha images, and piles of stones and bricks, which are assumed to be churches and temples. According to the stories of the older generation, at Wat Mon Chom Pho, there were originally many small and large brass and copper Buddha images leaning against trees or on piles of bricks and soil, and no one paid attention to them. During the demolition of the pagoda in 2520, many sacred objects were found, along with silver plates inscribed with the history of the pagoda's construction on iron plates in the Lanna language. When paying homage to Phra That Doi Chom Pho, "Pho" in the northern language means to look or look. It is believed that if you pay homage and pray, it is like opening your eyes and seeing the light in your life. 📍 Tambon Wiang, Amphoe Wiang Pa Pao, Chiang Rai Province #tripfreeaccommodation #PhraThatChomPho #PhraThatKaoJom #VisitChiangRai

Wat Phra That Doi Tung, Chiang Rai Located in the area called the chest of Doi Nang Non, it enshrines the left cervical bone of the Lord Buddha and is the chedi for those born in the year of the Pig. It is ancient, beautiful, and is located on a mountaintop about 2,000 meters above sea level. It is a pair of golden chedis in the shape of a small bell-shaped castle on a square base covered with terracotta tiles. The legend of Wat Phra That Doi Tung states that this is the first chedi in the Lanna Kingdom to enshrine the left cervical bone relics that King Achutarat brought from India. Later, Khru Ba Srivichai renovated it and built the current chedi to cover the old chedi. There is also a story that in the past, a centipede flag (Tung) that was as long as a thousand wa was planted on the mountaintop. If the tip of the flag fell somewhere, it would be used as the location of the stupa. This is probably the origin of the name Phra That Doi Tung. 📍 Huai Khrai Subdistrict, Mae Sai District, Chiang Rai Province ⏰ 08.00 – 18.00 hrs. #WinterTravel #WatPhraThatDoiTung #PhraThatKaoJom #ChiangRai #PhraThatForBirthYear

Phra That Chom Mok Kaew, Chiang Rai Province There is no evidence of when it was built, but there is a story that more than 100 years ago, the villagers who settled in that area went to find food in the forest and found a termite mound that looked like a pagoda. It was located on a small hill. In that area, there were many trees that northerners call "Som Poi" trees that were leaning like Nagas. They also found broken pottery scattered all over the area. The villagers therefore came to worship the termite mound. Anyone who wanted to do anything in the forest in this area must come to worship and ask for permission first.
