The information on site states that Wat Phra Chedi Sao Lang is a sacred temple built in open space, recognised for the 20 chedis within its grounds. Built more than 1,000 years ago, it is a significant example of the beauty of Lanna art and the culture of this era. Both Lanna and Burmese influences are reflected in this temple where there are beautiful architectural elements such as coloured glass windows. In 1983 villagers discovered an important Buddha image weighing more than 100 baht in gold found buried here which became the first national treasure of its kind.
