Wat Chet Lin, Chiang Mai

Wat Chet Lin is an ancient temple over 500 years old, located near the Sunday Walking Street in Chiang Mai city. The origin of the temple's name, the word "Lin" in the northern language means water channel. Therefore, the name "Chet Lin" means seven water channels because behind the temple there is a large pond with To Wa Bridge, a bamboo bridge that spans the historical pond. In the past, it was used for the coronation ceremony of ancient Lanna kings. Both sides of the bridge are decorated with beautiful Lanna umbrellas and lanterns for tourists to take pictures and check in.
