| WINAG KUM KAM - THE UNDERGROUND ANCIENT
CITY
Trip Description : Explore
Wiang Kum Kam, was a settlement long before King Mangrai's capital around 1287-

throughout the Lanna period. The site was later buried under mud when the river changed course during the Burmese period. The area was restored as a historical park during the 1980’s.Surrounded by paddy and village houses, the extensive site has a pleasant rural feel, yet it is very close to Chiang Mai.

Frequent flooding caused Mangrai to move, but the place remained important throughout the Lanna period. The site was later buried under mud when the river changed course during the Burmese period.

The best way to see it is by Local Tram: Visit ruin temples in Wiang Kum Kam such as Wat Kan Thom, located at the heart of Wiang Kum Kam. The temple contains the remains of former Wat Kan Thom as well as a spirit of King Mangrai.
