Wat Phra Kaeo Don Tao

Reviewed By Charbboon - Bangkok, Thailand

I have to say all the temples in Lampang are really really old and special although not always well protected or maintained. This one is no exception. The wooden roof is amazing. The legend tells the mystery story of how the emerald buddha came to be here because the elephants refused to go forward on their journey to bring this emerald buddha to its designated destination, Chiang mai if i remember correctly. There are some ancient master pieces of wooden craft shown around the temple although im a bit shocked to see these valuables just lying there in the open.

Wat Phra That Lampang Luang

Reviewed By DavidWGrant - Dallas, United States

Wat Phra That in Lamphang is truly a "must see", ranking in my top ten of Buddhist temples world-wide. While "ranking" temples is inherently absurd, I suppose, nonetheless, some grab your heart and mind - Wat Phra That is one of those! Plan a multi-hour visit, and just bask in the flow of curiosity, and calm, and color, and architecture, and grand setting that is Phra That! It is a tribute to the sheer magnetic power of this Wat, that even on our first visit here at last year's Loy Khrathong festival, the choking crowds, sword fighting and joyful noise from the street could not supplant the overwhelming awe one feels in this amazing place. Viewed from across the broad street in front, the place takes on the look of a vast citadel, elevated on its own hill and surrounded by buildings joined to form massive walls. The stairs up to the narrow, wooden-gated main entrance are only the beginning. There is something about the Lanna twist on Thai architecture that makes it more delicate, more vertical, and more sweeping, even on a large scale, and the entire site here is every bit Lanna. The seated-Buddha-within-Stupa inside the Wiharn has so much detail on the stupa that one could stare at it for an hour peacefully, and yet the details stand out, not as mere pattern or background, but as important elements, and the whole thing somehow does not distract from the Buddha inside. That alone is worth the climb. The site's layout is thematic, the flow is natural, everything is proportional, and nothing is out of place. The painting is textural, meditative and just outstanding. Old wooden pieces such as candle sconces that might now be in disuse, are restored and placed about as decoration, so that any restorations done to the buildings are never out of place with the history of the place. There are quiet places here, even at Loy Khrathong, and certainly in October! There are beautifully painted columns you want to touch, carvings that make you stare, and whether the place is stuffed full of people or nearly empty (all hail October!) a reverence prevails that cannot be broken. This is a breathtaking place not to be missed!

Wonderful temple in Lampang, very quiet on an early morning, stunning reclining Buddha (unfortunately, that part was closed during my visit). Loved to walk around the pagoda up the stairs, impressive.

Kad Kong Ta Street Market

Reviewed By blackeaglejim - Chiang Mai, Thailand

Lampang’s weekend market takes place on one of the most attractive streets in the city. It is lined with beautiful old houses and mansions built during the heyday of the teak industry a century ago. Each has a distinctive style, some in unpainted teak, others with whitewashed walls. Ornate lanterns stand along the street, but it is well worth a daytime visit. The Saturday and Sunday market stalls go up before dark along a four-block stretch and spill over into the adjoining lanes. It will be crowded, but not so jammed as the weekend ‘walking streets’ in Chiang Mai, with far fewer tourists. The stalls sell a variety of products, modern and traditional clothing, jewelry and household goods, plus a great array of snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. Young artists practice their painting, musicians perform for the public and other activities enliven the scene. The atmosphere is unhurried and friendly, but the market starts closing down around nine p.m.

Wat Chedi Sao Lang

Reviewed By Agkarajit - Chiang Mai, Thailand

On the outskirts of Lampang, this temple is a blend between Thai and Myanmar. Apart from the 20 stupas, there are a few sacred Buddha statues on the temple’s ground including a gold statue. There is also a small museum with collection of artifacts. Currently, the main hall (ubosot) is under renovation.
