Wat Chiang Man
Within Chiang Mai's old city, Wat Chiang Man is especially memorable for its chedi supported by sculpted elephants and its smaller temple buildings.
Why go
The elephant-backed chedi gives this temple a clear visual identity. It also offers a quieter way to compare old-city temple forms: walk around the chedi, then look at the assembly halls and the scripture repository rather than moving straight on.
What to look for
Elephant figures appearing to support the chedi's upper structure.
The temple's assembly halls within the old-city compound.
The raised scripture repository described in the temple's older account.
Useful to know
Circle the chedi to see how the elephants repeat around its base.
Combine it with other sites inside the old-city moat on foot.
