A small chedi
-

Wat Jed Yod or Wat Photharam is situated on the Super Highway Road, Tambon Chang Phueak, Mueang District, Chiang Mai. Phrachao Tilokarat had the temple built in 1455 as a dwelling for Phra Sirimangkalajarn, a monk of the Wat Pa Daeng sect. In 1477 the king had the Tripitaka Collation or revision performed at the temple. His cremation ceremony was performed and his ashes are kept at the Chedi here at Wat Jed Yod. The chedi has remained until today. It was a castle style chedi with a niche around each side. The east face of the chedi houses a large image of the Buddha subduing the Mara.

The principal chedi of this temple is different from others elsewhere. It is in a chetiya style with a Buddha image chamber at the base. The beauty of this style chedi is presented through its body and the stucco designs of the outer part. The stucco is molded into figures of angels in different postures, sitting and standing. The background is stucco decorations of floral designs which archeologists believe to be an art from the 21st Century B.E. Khun Khaimuk Tuto used these beautiful designs as an inspiration for designing the garments and ornaments used in the King’s dressings when sculpturing the Three Kings Monument.
