Wat Ming Muang: A Hidden Gem in Chiang Rai

Wat Ming Muang, a heritage of the Lanna people in Chiang Rai, is located in front of Samakkhi Witthayakhom School. Just a five-minute walk from the Clock Tower, you'll arrive at the temple. From the outside, it may not look very impressive because the expansion of the city has encroached upon the temple walls, almost completely obscuring its once prominent features. However, stepping inside is like discovering another world; it's the spirit of the Lanna people that still lingers, embodied in the sacred sculptures within the temple.
