● Visit Wat Phra That Lampang Luang, a beautiful 13th-century Lanna-style Buddhist temple ● Ride a horse cart through the town of Lampang, a unique way of seeing the local people, temples and markets ● See the 9th-century Phrathat Hariphunchai Temple and Lawo (Lopburi) style Jamdevi temple
Our first stop is Jamdevi Temple (Wat Cham Thawi), home to a chedi surrounded by arches holding 60 Buddha statues; Queen Chama Devi’s ashes are said to be found inside. The unusual square ‘stepped pyramid’ pagoda is the oldest surviving example of its kind from the Dvaravati period ruling much of Thailand from the 6th to 11th centuries.
We’ll head to Wat Prathat Hariphunchai – a fantastic 9th-century temple complex by the river. Said to be Lamphun’s biggest, oldest and most attractive temple compound, Hariphunchai Temple got its name from the Mon Kingdom city that ruled this part of northern Thailand from the 9th-13th centuries.
Wat Phra That Lampang Luang, said to be one of the best examples of Lanna-style architecture in the country. The temple complex houses a historical museum, massive brick gate, intricately-painted viharas, a sand-filled courtyard, bronze and copper stupas… all in a tranquil setting.
