Wat Umong (วัดอุโมงค์—Chiang Mai)

In terms of old and beautiful Buddhist sculpture and architecture, Wat Umong is easily the most interesting temple I’ve seen in the greater Chiang Mai area. The ancient temple, built in 1297 CE, features fascinating tunnels with hidden alcoves, a field of broken and decaying stone Buddha statues, a large sculpture of the emaciated bodhisattva, and a tall, stone stupa.
