BIT 2025 Chiang Mai, Thailand August 2024. ..wat pha lat hike( monk's trail )..The Buddha Image Hall by the Cliff..Located just after the Burmese-style chedi, this Buddha image hall is a highlight of Wat Phalad. It is a square-shaped chedi with intricate, old stucco designs. Originally, it was a beautiful Buddha image hall. It is said that in the past, the Buddha images here were in the Chiang Saen style, and one of the sacred Buddha statues was known as Phra Lai Ka. Later, during a time of war, the Shan people sought refuge in Phalat Cave and built Buddha images here for worship and spiritual support. Today, it is a popular spot within the temple where Buddhists come to practice meditation and engage in spiritual activities.
