Wat Chiang Man is a must-see spectacle located in the old city of Chiang Mai, Thailand. It is a Buddhist temple founded by Mangrai in 1297 and contains an impressive array of historic sights to explore. Tourists are sure to find something interesting here; they can take in the Elephant Chedi which stands atop a 15 life-sized brick and stucco elephants, explore the revitalized Main Wihan which has a 10cm tall quartz Crystal Buddha sculpted around 200 CE for King Ramraj, or witness the awe-inspiring Phra Sila statue which dates back to the 8th or 10th century and is believed to have rain-giving powers. There's much more to experience at Wat Chiang Man – a visit to this beautiful location will leave you with lasting memories.

It's not far from the infamous Zoe in yellow nightclub, with many other bars around the same area.
