Acharn Mun Bhuridatto Viharn
The Acharn Mun Bhuridatto Viharn is named after a venerated monk of the 19th century. It is located within the grounds of Wat Chedi Luang. Acharn Mun Bhuridatto was born in 1870 and became a renowned meditation master in Thailand.
The Acharn Mun Bhuridatto Viharn is located to the west of the chedi of Wat Chedi Luang. It is highly ornate, with ornamentation covering every panel of the pediment. A short flight of stairs leads up into the viharn, flanked on either sides by naga balustrades. Within the viharn is a reliquary.
Next to Acharn Mun Bhuridatto Viharn is another pavilion. Unfortunately I am unable to get its name, as the signboard was posted only in Thai.
