[2025 Chiang Kham Attraction] Travel Guide for Wat Phra Nang Din (Updated Mar)

🛕Wat Phra Nang Din is an old temple that has been with the villagers in Chiang Kham District and nearby areas for a long time. It is located in Ban Phra Nang Din, Village No. 7, Wiang Subdistrict, Chiang Kham District, Phayao Province. The highlight of Wat Phra Nang Din is that it is a temple where the principal Buddha image of the temple does not have a pedestal (pedestal) to support it like the principal Buddha image in other temples. There is a legend told by the elders that there used to be villagers who built a pedestal and invited the Phra Nang Din to sit on it, but a miraculous event occurred when lightning struck the middle of the temple three times. The villagers then invited the Phra Chao Nang Din to be enshrined on the ground as before and have been calling it “Phra Nang Din” to this day. Currently, the Phra Nang Din is still enshrined in the temple on the floor of the temple with a glass cover. 🌳The area inside is spacious and shady with large trees. The most prominent one is probably the large crabapple tree that spreads its branches to provide shade and help relieve some of the heat. Near the temple is a beautifully decorated Lanna-style pagoda decorated with striking gold. 🚗Directions: Take Highway 1148 south, 4 kilometers from Chiang Kham District. Wat Phra Nang Din will be on the right. Admission fee: Free Opening hours: Open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Wat Phra Nang Din, Phayao This temple has a principal Buddha image without a pedestal like other principal Buddha images. In the past, people built a pedestal and invited the principal Buddha image to be enshrined there, but it turned out that no matter how hard they tried, they could not lift it, so it was called Phra Chao Nang Din. It is assumed that this Buddha image was built when the Lord Buddha was still alive, or more than 2,500 years ago. Legend says that the Lord Buddha of Phuttharat discovered the history in the year 1213 of the Fourth Era, when the Lord Buddha went out to show mercy to all beings through miracles until he arrived at Wiang Phuttharat, Chiang Kham District today. The Lord Buddha stayed on Doi Singkuttra, spread his mercy and bestowed blessings, and told Phraya Kham Daeng, the Lord Buddha of Phuttharat at that time, to build a statue of himself in Phuttharat. When the Lord Buddha finished speaking, it turned out that there was one Indra, one Naga, two hermits, and four Arahants. Helping to create sacred soil from Sri Lanka for 1 month and 7 days, it was completed. When the Lord Buddha had reached all the people, he went back to the city of Buddharasa again. He saw that the image he had ordered to be created was smaller than the Tathagata. The Lord Buddha ordered to add soil to make it as big as the Lord Buddha. Then the Omniscient One spread its rays to cover the universe. The replica statue was moved down from the base of the altar to pay homage to the Omniscient One. He preached to the image that he had ordered to be created, saying, “May you stay and preserve my religion, Tathagata, for 5,000 years.” The image was accepted and enshrined on that land. The image is the current “Phra Chao Nang Din”. 📍 Tambon Wiang, Amphoe Chiang Kham, Phayao Province #WinterTravel #WatPhraNangDin #Phayao #SacredTemplesofThailand

#Wat Phra Nang Din #Visit Phayao #Visit Northern Region #Worship in Northern Region #Phayao Temple #Review Chiang Kham 🕌 Wat Phra Nang Din is located in Ban Phra Nang Din, Village No. 7, Wiang Subdistrict, Chiang Kham District, Phayao Province. Inside the temple, there is an old principal Buddha image, "Phra Chao Nang Din", which is a principal Buddha image without a base like other principal Buddha images. It is one of the sacred objects of Phayao. 🕌 This temple is different from other temples in that the principal Buddha image of the temple does not have a base. There is a story that has been passed down that once, the faithful helped build a base to invite the principal Buddha image to be enshrined. But it turned out that no matter how hard they tried to lift it, they could not lift it. Therefore, it is the origin of the principal Buddha image that the villagers call "Phra Nang Din". 🕌 After paying respects at Wat Phra Nang Din, I would like to recommend a delicious northern restaurant opposite Wat Phra Nang Din called "Lab Lung Rop". We stopped by to eat and really liked it. It has a real northern feel. But I would recommend going there first. Or after noon, otherwise you will have to wait a long time for your food.
