The Four Standing Buddhas are enshrined in the niches of a grand castle-style stupa at Wat Phra Yuen. Historically, there was originally only one standing Buddha image from the Hariphunchai period. In 1369 CE, King Kue Na of Chiang Mai commissioned three additional images to welcome the venerable monk Phra Sumanthera from Sukhothai. The four statues are tall and graceful, clad in monastic robes and standing on lotus pedestals, symbolizing the four Buddhas of the present era (Bhadrakalpa). The stupa itself underwent major restoration during the reign of King Rama V, drawing architectural inspiration from the Thatbyinnyu Temple in Bagan, Myanmar.
