The Chedi at Wat Chang Kong in Chiang Mai, Thailand

The Chedi at Wat Chang Kong in Chiang Mai, Thailand, is little known, despite its very accessible location at the intersection of Loi Kroh and Kampaengdin Road, near the night market and just west of the Mae Ping River. Pictured here is the white Chedi, however the complex also includes a Viharn (meeting hall) built in the early Rama style, and several associated buildings. Though the surrounding businesses have attempted to maintain the Wat, the structures are falling into disrepair and are mostly closed up. They are, however, still worth a look from the outside.
