Wat Phra Yuen
Quiet temple in a small grove
What we say: 
The grounds of Wat Phra Yuen (standing Buddha) contain a chedi with four niches, within each of which stands a tall Buddha. T
The original complex dates back to the 11th century, although a number of restorations and expansions have taken place since then.
This wat is located in a small grove around 1 km to the east of central Lamphun. Its not really worth the walk out unless you have a specific interest in wats or have 30 minutes or so to kill.
To get here walk through the covered bridge and then continue down the road for about ten minutes, then cross the main road you reach and the temple is straight ahead.
