Wat Chetawan

Wat Chetawan was established in 1636 A.D. while Chiang Saen was under Burmese rule.  It is located on the main street in Chiang Saen, and is one of the more distinctive temples due to the numerous figures and statues that are lined up by the sign at the front of the temple.

Wat Mahawan

Wat Mahawan is a deserted temple that was probably built during the 15th - 16th centuries A.D.  There is not  a lot of information about the construction of this temple.  The temple complex includes a short main chedi, and two vihans - the larger one is home to a headless Buddha image.  All of the structures were built in brick and coated with lime.  The temple faces east and parts of it, such as the boundary wall, were broken during road construction.  

This temple is particularly distinctive due to its headless Buddha image.

Abandoned Temple No. 6

This temple is awesome because of its name, "Abandoned Temple No. 6", and because of the massive tree growing out of the stone structure.

It is on the main street in Chiang Saen and is dated to the 16th century.
