    It is a small temple with historical importance. There is a Ku King Mengrai made of laterite at the top. It is sacred, beautiful, and very magical. If you come to Chiang Rai, you must come and pay homage. Parking is a little difficult.

    If you go there on foot, you can climb 69 steps and enter the temple. If you drive there, most guests park their cars on the edge of the steep slope because the space in the courtyard is limited. There is a main hall and an open-air worshiping place in the courtyard. There are even free restrooms provided. The long steps going up the slope are the most beautiful part of the temple. In early December, at noon in northern Thailand, the sun is shining with passion. But the believers sitting comfortably on the steps, the monks immersed in studying Buddhism, and the tourists who stopped and sat on both sides of the steps did not feel the heat at all, but instead felt the coolness, quietness, stability, and solitude. a feeling of. This step is an excellent convenience method.

    (Translated by Google) ...want to visit and worship beautiful places magical and charming Carved wooden pillars flank both sides of the wooden gate. It shows the greatness of the amazing civilization. Both tell the story of King Mengrai in scenes. I don't get bored watching. ...If you don't come to visit, you will regret that it may be decayed forever. Quiet place, not crowded, beautiful church, beautiful Buddha image, worth a visit. No noise...this is truly the dream temple of the old believers... (Original) ...อยากให้ไปเยียมชม และสักการะสถานที่สวยงาม ขลังและมีเสน่ห์ เสาไม้แกะสลักตั้วตระหง่านขนาบทั้งสองข้างประตูไม้ แสดงถึงความยิ่งใหญของอารยธรรมอันน่าทึ่ง ทั้งเล่าเรื่องราวความเป็นมาของพ่อขุนเม็งรายเป็นฉากเป็นตอนดูเท่าใดไม่รู้เบื่อ ...หากไม่ได้มาเยี่ยมชมจะเสียดายอาจผุกร่อนไปตามกาล สถานที่เงียบสงบไม่พลุกพล่าน โบสถ์สวยงาม พระพุทธรูปงดงามควรค่าแก่การมาเยือนยิ่งนัก ไม่มีเสียงเอะอะ...ที่นี่คือวัดในฝันของนักศรัทธาของเก่าอย่างแท้จริง...
