This is the most well-known temple in Phrae province, it hosts a fragment of an elbow-bone of the Buddha and is a popular worship destination for Thais and other Buddhists.
Although it was a steep 120 steps climb on a hot afternoon, I was grateful for the opportunity to escape and spend a couple of hours with the lovely Thai-wives of the esteemed TD members who were in Phrae at the same time.
This Temple is also famous for the shrine of Phra Chao Than Chai Buddha, and has a gold plated 33 meters high chedi which is of the Chiang Saen style, there is also a fair celebrating the Chedi in March every year.
