Phra Chao Kao Tue is a majestic bronze Buddha at Wat Suan Dok, cast in 1504 by King Phraya Mueang Kaew. Its name derives from "Tue," a Lanna weight unit; "Nine Tue" represents the 9,000 kilograms of metal used. Blending Chiang Saen and Sukhothai styles, the statue features a 3-meter lap width and stands 4.7 meters tall. Originally intended for Wat Phra Singh, its immense weight made transport impossible, prompting the King to convert his royal residence into its permanent shrine. Later restored by Kruba Srivichai, it was registered as a national monument in 1935.
