Wat Chang Lom, Buddhist temple ruins in Si Satchanalai, Thailand

The temple features a large central stupa with multiple elephant sculptures at its base, demonstrating the architectural mastery of ancient Thai builders.

Constructed during the 13th century Sukhothai period, this temple complex served as a religious center where monks gathered for meditation and ceremonies.

The elephant sculptures surrounding the stupa represent the integration of animal symbolism into Buddhist religious practices of ancient Thai civilization.

Visitors can reach the temple complex through local transportation from Si Satchanalai city center, with guided tours available throughout the day.

The thirty-nine life-sized elephant statues encircling the base of the stupa create a structural foundation while forming a decorative border.
