In the histo

       In the history of Lampang City, Wat Phra That Lampang Luang has a history that in the year 2275, Lampang City was without a ruler and there was chaos. At that time, Burma was powerful and had expanded its influence to rule the entire Lanna Kingdom. Burma occupied Chiang Mai and Lamphun by appointing the rulers of the city under the rule of the Burmese king. Thao Mahayot, the ruler of Lampang City, led his forces to seize Lampang City and set up a camp inside Wat Phra That Lampang Luang. At that time, Nan Thip Chang, a villager from Pong Yang Khok (now in Hang Chat District), a hero of Lampang people, gathered his troops to fight against the army of Chao Mahayot by sneaking into the temple and shooting Thao Mahayot to death. Then, the Lampang army was defeated. Today, there are still bullet marks on the brass fence surrounding the Phra That Chedi. Later, Nan Thip Chang was established as Phraya Sula Wa Lue Chai Songkhram, the ruler of Lampang City and was the ancestor of the Na family.
