Wat Chedi Luang

It is located on Phra Pokklao Road, Wat Chedi Luang. It is known for a colossal pagoda, originally measuring 280 ft in height. The pagoda was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 1545 AD. The temple once enshrined the image of the Emerald Buddha, which is now enshrined at Wat Phra Kaeo in Bangkok. The most striking architectural feature of the temple is the splendid Naga or the serpent staircase, which adds to the beauty of the front portico of the chapel.
