Local info about two temples, Wat Phrachao Ong Dam en Wat Phaya Mangrai.

Wat Phrachao Ong Dam (Thai: วัดพระเจ้าองค์ดำ; "Temple of the Black-Bodied Lord") is a ruined temple that is part of the Wiang Kum Kam archaeological site.

The ruin is named after a burnt bronze Buddha image that was discovered there.

It is located very close to the north-western side of Wat Phaya Mangrai, another ruin in the area.
