Wat Phrabat Phrathat In Kwaen, This temple was built through the devotion of local people, inspired by the famous Kyaiktiyo (Golden Rock) of Myanmar. The golden pagoda sits atop a massive natural boulder that appears to hang precariously over a cliff, yet has remained firmly in place for many years, symbolizing strong faith and spiritual wonder.

Buddhist Art on the Mountaintop:

Besides the pagoda, the temple houses a sacred Buddha footprint inside a beautiful wooden viharn. A long naga staircase leads visitors to the hill’s highest point, allowing them to walk through nature, enjoy fresh mountain air, and experience peaceful surroundings along the way.

A Must-See Viewpoint:

On clear days, visitors can see far across Lamphun and even toward Chiang Mai and Doi Suthep. The site perfectly blends spiritual tranquility with natural beauty, making it ideal for both merit-making and relaxation.

How to Get There
