The walls inside the newest viharn at Wat Chiang Man are decorated with beautiful paintings like this one that is a scene from Thailand’s national epic called Ramakien. Adopted from a Hindu story, this mural shows Sida’s son Mongkut (or Kusa) and his friend Lop (Lava) riding a white horse that was released by Rama. On the left is Hanuman, the God-king of apes and a monkey general.
