Wat Buak Krok Luang, Buddhist temple in Tha Sala, Thailand

The temple complex features a Viharn with stepped roofs and decorated walls displaying traditional Northern Thai architectural elements through its design and structure.

Built in 1837, the Viharn at Wat Buak Krok Luang exhibits Northern Thai architecture with influences from Central Thailand visible in its decorative elements.

The interior walls contain murals from the early 19th century Shan school, depicting Buddhist stories and local Lanna life through detailed artistic representations.

The temple maintains regular opening hours from early morning until late afternoon, allowing visitors to explore the grounds and observe religious ceremonies.

The entrance steps feature distinctive serpents with bird beaks, while inside stands a pulpit constructed by Princess Chamarirachathewi of Chiang Mai.
