At the foot of Doi Kong Mu is Wat Phra Non which
houses a 12-metre long Reclining Buddha in the Thai Yai
style cast in 1875 by Phra Nang Miah, wife of Phraya Sihanatracha.
Another main feature of the temple is the two large sculpted
lions lying side by side presumably providing the passage
for those going up to pay homage to the Kong Mu Holy Relic
on the hill.
