ThailandDescription and is it worth a visit
Wat Phan On (Wat Phan On, also spelled Wat Phun Ohn) is one of the many small temples in the old city of Chiang Mai, built in 1501 during the reign of King Lanna Muang Kaeo. It is distinguished by a large two-story viharn (one of the temple buildings where believers come to pray) and one of the most beautiful in the city of golden chedi. Also on the territory there are "kuti", these are the living quarters of the monks.
A beautiful golden chedi or stupa is a modern building, it appeared only in 2007. Saririkkatartsirirak is named after the King of Thailand Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX). On all four sides of the chedi there are red niches in which images of the Buddha are fixed. There is a very large gong next to the chedi. Inside the viharna there is an exhibition of photographs and documents about the life of one of the most beloved by the people of Thailand, King Rama IX, who died in 216.
On Sundays, from about 18 hours to midnight, there is a large night market next to the temple.
