Wat Si Khom Kham is a royal temple formerly known as Wat Prachao Toneluang. The name derives from the characteristics of the largest seated Buddha image in Lanna which measures 14 metres wide at the lap and 17 metres tall. It took 33 years to build and spanned 3 rulers, Phaya Muangyee, Phaya Huakian and Chao Muangtu. This image called Phra Chao Ong Luang or Phra Chao Ton Luang, now more than 500 years old, was built in the Chiang Saen style of the Lanna Kingdom.
