Located on Phra Pokklao Road, this temple is the site of
an enormous pagoda, originally 280 feet high, and which
was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 1545. At one
time, Wat Chedi Luang housed the revered Emerald Buddha
image now enshrined in Bangkok's Wat Phra Kaeo. One of the
temple's most striking architectural feature is a magnificent
Naga (mythical serpent) staircase which adorns the chapel's
front porch.
