Wat Chedi Luang is a historic Buddhist temple located in the heart of Chiang Mai's Old City. Built in the 14th century, it features a massive chedi that was once the tallest structure in the Lanna Kingdom. The chedi was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 1545 but still retains its impressive presence. The temple was once home to the famous Emerald Buddha before it was moved to Bangkok. Today it offers a popular Monk Chat program where visitors can learn about Buddhism.
