[2025 Chiang Mai Attraction] Travel Guide for Wat Chiang Chom (Wat Chedi Plong) (Updated Jul)

Driving into the Chedi Plong community, I was struck by the old pagoda in the area of ​​Wat Chiang Chom. The highlight is the chimney-shaped pagoda. I read in the history that it is an architectural style that is assumed to have been influenced in part by Chinese pagodas. It can be found in 3 temples in Chiang Mai: Chedi Wat Ram Ping (Tapotharam), Chedi Wat Phuk Hong, and Chedi Wat Chiang Chom. The area around Wat Sa-ak is beautiful and very orderly. When I asked the temple, I found out that in the past, it was abandoned. It was recently renovated and there were monks residing there only a few years ago. The chapel was just built, not very big, and has very beautiful patterns. After paying respect to the principal Buddha image, I felt very fulfilled. I would like to invite my friends and brothers and sisters to come along this route. The old pagoda is very beautiful and the temple is very beautiful as well. Location: Pracha Uthit Road (Chedi Plong Community), Tambon Chang Phueak, Amphoe Mueang, Chiang Mai #100WaysToTravel #ChiangMaiTemples #ChiangMaiReview #ChiangMaiTravel #OldTemples #OldChiangMaiTemples #WhereToGoInChiangMai

Visited in August 2023 *Wat Ploen Akhart This is also a huge pink Ganesha🦣 I was surprised at its size‼️ Located in the Ploen Akhart area of ​​Bang Nam Priao District, Chachoengsao Province, this temple is famous for its huge Ganesha statue and was built in 1977😊 The glittering golden main hall, built under the influence of the Taj Mahal design, was completed in 1996. Next to the main hall across the pond is a huge pink Ganesha statue, said to be the largest in Asia. It is said to be popular among Thai people as a photogenic temple✨ Here, too, there are statues of different colors for each day of the week, and you can make a wish at your own place✨ The glittering main hall is also beautiful and recommended😊 #ThailandTrip #TempleTour #BangkokTrip #Temple #ThaiTour #PinkGanesha

#besttrip2023 #wintertrip #thaifood #thaicafe #thaistreetfood #thaiairways #thaimassage Access: Thai Vietjet Airways Tourist attractions: Northern Thailand, Chiang Mai Wat Phra Singh The purpose of this trip to Thailand was to visit TOKI coffee farm in northern Thailand and learn about Thai coffee beans. This was my first time in Thailand, and I stayed at a coffee farm in the north, based in Chiang Mai. Chiang Mai was very lively during its annual festival. The Thai food at the Thai food stalls is very delicious and I think it suits Japanese people very well. The cafe scene in Thailand is also very advanced, very stylish and unified, so cafe hopping is recommended. There are also many massage shops, and the prices vary depending on the shop, but this time I went to a shop that was more expensive than usual, but the service was excellent and good. Choosing the shop is important. Japanese is not widely spoken, and Thai and English are the mainstream. The city of Bangkok is nice, but the downtown feel of Chiang Mai is highly recommended.

There are 3 temples in Chiang Mai: Chedi Wat Ram Poeng, Chedi Wat Phuk Hong, and Chedi Wat Chiang Chom. Wat Chedi Plong has been renovated and a Buddha image was created as the principal Buddha image in the chapel by Phra Thep Wachi Thachan, Deputy Chief of the Chiang Mai Province Sangha and Abbot of Wat Phra That Doi Suthep Ratchaworawihan.
