The Northern Stupa of Wat Chedi Luang is said to be very old, although the exact date of its construction is unknown. It is a square-shape stupa with a three-dentate body and two-dentate lotus-shape base.

The middle part of the Northern Stupa is covered with gilded metal plates while its pinnacle and parasol are made of brass and also gilded. The northern stupa of Wat Chedi Luang is 13.43 meters tall and measures 6.55 meters wide at the base. It was restored in 1993. [an error occurred while processing this directive]
