This impressive Wat can be found behind The Princes Royal College which lies on Kaewnarawat rd, the main road out to Arcade Bus Station, Chiang Mai. Just turn left down the soi immediately before the college(coming from the river), and then right and you will see the entrance.
The compound contains extensive accommodation buildings for its Monks and Novices as well as equally extensive school buildings.

Immediately on your right as you come in is home to a well respected Thai massage training course for local Thais.

There is a large courtyard with many trees offering plenty of shelter from the sun.

The Temple itself is quite large.

Inside there are many scenes from Buddhas story adorning the walls in that splendid traditional painting to be seen in so many of Chiang Mais temples.
To the left of the main temple is a large wooden Vihara.
My visit here was short, just dropping of my partner somboon who was trying the massage course.
Should i have reason to return I will be sure to get more photos and hopefully more info.
