Wat Thatnoi วัดธาตุน้อย , Wiang Kum Kam

Wat Thatnoi, Wiang Kum Kam (26 October, 2006)


Wat Thatnoi (GPS: 18.74792, 99.00079; Thai: วัดธาตุน้อย ) is the preserved ruins of a Thai Buddhist monastery in Wiang Kum Kam, to the south of Chiang Mai, Thailand. What's left today are the remains of what the monastery once was, sitting on a brick base.

There are no historical record of Wat Thatnoi. The name "thatnoi" means "little chedi". Until restoration work was carried out, the monastery was buried in soil of 60-70 centimeters deep. Based on its architecture, archaeologists have determined that this monastery dates from the 14th or 15th century.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
