Wat Chedi Luang translates literally from the Thai as Monastery of the Great Stupa’. Construction of the temple began at the end of the 14th century when the Lan Na Kingdom was in its prime. King Saen Muang Ma (1385-1401) intended it as the site of a great reliquary to enshrine the ashes of his father, King Ku Na (1355-85). Today it is the the site of the Lak Muang or City Pillar. The annual Inthakin ceremony occurs within the confines of the temple. Chiang Mai (meaning 'new city'), sometimes written as 'Chiengmai' or 'Chiangmai', is the largest and most culturally significant city in northern Thailand. King Mengrai founded the city of Chiang Mai in 1296, and it succeeded Chiang Rai as capital of the Lanna kingdom.

Loei (Thai: ลย) Province is located in Thailand's upper North-East. Neighboring provinces are (from east clockwise) Nong Khai, Udon Thani, Nongbua Lamphu, Khon Kaen, Phetchabun, Phitsanulok. In the north it borders Xaignabouli and Vientiane Provinces of Laos. The province is covered with low mountains, while the capital Loei is located in a fertile basin. The Loei River, which flows through the province, is a tributary of the Mekong which, together with the smaller Hueang River, forms the northern boundary of the province with neighboring Laos. Although temperatures in the hot season (April-May) can be more than 40 degrees Celsius, the province is the only one in Thailand where temperatures regularly drops below freezing at night in the cold season (December-January). Loei is rich in national parks, including especially Phu Kradung, Phu Ruea, Phu Suan Sai (also known as Na Haeo) and Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary. In 1853 King Mongkut (Rama IV) founded the city of Loei to administer the

LAO - LE RYTHME DES EAUXAu Nord du Laos, enclavée dans les montagnes, la paisible cité de Luang Prabang prospère depuis des siècles au sein de la péninsule formée par la confluence du fleuve Mékong et de la rivière Nam Khan. Avant dêtre devancée par Vientiane, elle fut la capitale du puissant Royaume de Lane Xang (Royaume du Million dEléphants). Son architecture coloniale et ses majestueux temples lui valent dêtre inscrite au patrimoine mondiale de lUNESCO depuis 1995.La légende raconte que Bouddha y serait venu au cours de lun de ses voyages et quil a souri. Aujourdhui, la ville est un haut lieu bouddhique de lAsie du Sud-Est. Les jeunes y viennent des campagnes alentours pour faire une retraite monastique et ainsi recevoir une éducation gratuite.A loccasion de Pi Mai, la Fête de l'Eau, Luang Prabang se réveille. Correspondant au Nouvel An lao et bouddhique, on fête le retour de la saison des pluies et la renaissance de la nature. Durant les plusieurs jours de festivités,

Wat Lok Moli or topknot of the world’ is thought to have been founded by King Ku Na, the 6th king of the Mangrai Dynasty (1263-1578), who ruled the Lan Na Kingdom from Chiang Mai between about 1367 and 1388. It was probably a royal temple, since the northern side of the city was a royal precinct at the time; certainly the sanctuary enjoyed a long and close association with the Mangrai rulers. According to a notice at the south entrance of the temple, King Ku Na invited a group of ten monks from Burma to come and live in Chiang Mai, providing Lok Moli as a residence for them. The huge chedi that distinguishes Lok Moli was built in 1527, perhaps after the orders of the 11th Mangrai monarch, King Muang Kaeo (1495-1526), but apparently during the first year of the first reign of his younger brother, King Ket Chettharat (1526-1538).
