Description: |

This old temple established in 1296 during the reign of King
Mengrai is now widely known as a meditation center devout
Buddhists from around the world visit to practice amid its
peaceful atmosphere and minimalism structures. Around the area
you also find numerous historical artifacts and architectures,
such as Asok Pillar, which is devoted to an Indian King Asok
Maharaja who was a devout Buddhist, and U-Mong, an ancient
tunnel-like architecture built to create a near-silent ambience
for better meditation practice.
