[2025 Chiang Mai Attraction] Travel Guide for Wat Muen San (Updated Aug)

Wat Muen San is located on Wualai Road. The history of the temple is unclear as to when it was built. There is only a local legend that mentions this temple. The 15th king of the Mangrai Dynasty, a minister named Wimonkitti, rank Muen, built this monastery and supported the temple throughout. Therefore, it was named Wat Muen San after that minister. Inside the temple, there is a chapel similar to a miniature temple, a stupa containing the relics of Khru Ba Srivichai, and a monument to Khru Ba Srivichai, a saint of Lanna. There is also a Sutthachitto Art Gallery decorated with silverware. The silversmiths of Ban Wualai helped to emboss metal patterns to decorate both the outside and inside. Inside, there are wax figures of 3 Khru Ba: Khru Ba Srivichai, Khru Ba Intha, and Khru Ba Boonban, the former abbots of Wat Muen San. In the past, this temple was a warehouse for supplies, weapons, and accommodation for wounded soldiers of the Japanese army during World War II. #Beautiful temples in Chiang Mai #Beautiful temples

#ArtTourismArtistSinlapasutthachit is a Lanna-style building. Many silversmiths from Ban Wualai helped to emboss metal patterns to decorate both inside and outside the gallery. These are traditional Lanna patterns, reflecting the history of the Ban Wualai people and their way of life in the past. In terms of construction design, which was built in a Lanna-style, the structure was designed by Mr. Amnuay Nanthakat. As for the design of the art gallery's decorative patterns, Mr. Chirasak Kawila, a silversmith from Ban Wualai, has used traditional Lanna patterns, which are the unique patterns of Ban Wualai silverware, to emboss metal patterns to decorate inside and outside the gallery. #wattosann

✔️The Silver Temple is also called Wat Suphan. It is also the only all-metal temple in the world. The entire temple is made of either silver or aluminum, which is exquisite. 🥰 🟢The Silver Temple is a little smaller than the White Temple and the Blue Temple, but it is still quite spectacular as a whole. Every sculpture is carefully carved by hand.
