Legend has it that this statue was discovered in an ancient stupa
at Wat Pa Yia (Chiang Rai) in 1434.
Its history is, to say the least, eventful,
with many miracles and strange phenomena.
Several kings fought over it, and over time it changed temples several times. It was first kept in Lampang, then Chiang Mai, then in Laos in Luang Prabang and Vientiane, before being taken over by the Thais, kept for a few years in Thonburi (at Wat Arun).
before being placed in 1784 in its current location!
