Wat Phra That Doi Khao Kwai, worship the relics of the Lord Buddha

#tripแจกโรงแรมฟรี 🙏Wat Phra That Doi Khao Kwai Kaew or Wat Phra That Doi Khao Kwai, according to local legend, approximately 1,000 years ago, Phraya Thammikarat, the ruler of Chiang Rai, built Phra That Doi Khao Kwai to enshrine the relics of the Buddha, the left little finger of the wrist, which were presented by a group of monks who came to spread Buddhism in the Lanna region. 🛕The shape of Phra That Doi Khao Kwai is similar to a Lanna-style castle-shaped pagoda. This style of pagoda appeared around the beginning of the 21st Buddhist century by modifying the five-spire castle-shaped pagoda to have only one spire, without any pagodas at the four corners above the pagoda chamber, but instead with satellite pagodas at the base of the lower part. 🛕Wat Phra That Doi Khao Kwai has been renovated several times during the Chiang Saen and King Mangrai eras. 🛕Every year, there is a tradition of bathing the pagoda on the full moon day of the eighth month of the Lanna lunar month (Ed Peng), which coincides with the full moon day of Visakha Bucha, around May. 🌄When you go up to make merit at the temple, you can see the beautiful scenery of Chiang Rai city in all directions. At night, there will be colorful lights of electric lights, sparkling like colorful gems.
