#culturetrip The old

#culturetrip The oldest Burmese temple built by Burmese people, the most complete in Thailand. It has been used as a scene in many Burmese dramas, such as Rak Nakara (version with Noon Woranuch), Yatika, and Plerng Phra Nang (version with Meow Chamaiporn). The place is constantly being renovated. The latest renovation was in 2017 by the Fine Arts Department. The carvings are delicate and graceful. The temple was once burnt down, leaving only the stairs up, and was rebuilt in the original style. It is a pity that the original lawn in front of the chapel and the pagoda has been converted to brick to accommodate cars instead. If there are many tourists on a day, you will not be able to take wide-angle photos. If anyone has the opportunity to visit Lampang, please come and see the beauty of Burmese art at Wat Si Chum. #culturetrip
