Phra Singh Buddha at Wat Phra Singh in Chiang Mai, Thailand

In the mid-14th century, King Mahaprom sent the revered Phra Singh Buddha from India to King Phayu who ruled the Mengrai Dynasty. During transport, the chariot broke down so a temple was built on the spot to house the golden Buddha statue. It sits in the lotus position in the middle of this altar in Wihan Lai Kham, a prayer hall at Wat Phra Singh.
