Wat Jetlin dates from the 16th century and was used for the coronation of the Lanna king in 1551. In fact, the name refers to the seven channels that royals are said to have bathed in. The oldest parts of the wat are the ancient chedi and Buddha sculpture which likely date from the time of the wat’s origins. The ubosot features a gilded Buddha and a tiered ceiling in Lanna style. The wat presents as a serene refuge from the adjacent busy road, with its elegant lily-pond and bamboo (creaky in places) walkway. Huge catfish create roiling water as visitors empty their 10 baht bags.
