古道寺—泰国寺院

　　泰国古道寺（Wat Ku Tao）
　　古道寺(Wat Ku Tao)的全名叫“Wat Weru Wan Ku Tao”，“Weru”是“竹子”的意思，“Wan”就是钵的形状，所以全部的意思就是“竹林旁里埋葬骨灰的钵形佛塔”。
　　古道寺果真有数排竹林，但最大的看头还是那不寻常的塔，由5个类似和尚的钵形物组成，上面并覆有多彩的琉璃片。
　　Wat Ku Tao, the temple where this remarkable chedi stands, is located between the Old Chiang Mai Municipality Stadium (sanaam gila gao) and Thanon Pattana Chang Puak, about 200 metres north along Soi Chang Puak 6, on the eastern side of the lane. Little enough is known either of the temple, or of the chedi from which the former gets its present name - ku tao, the ku or reliquary of the tao (watermelon in kham muang, the language of the North). In fact, Wat Ku Tao - although now the commonly accepted name of the temple - is a long-standing colloquialism, and the more formal name given in the Chiang Mai Chronicle is Wat Weluwan Ku Tao, or the 'Temple in the Bamboo Forest with a Watermelon Stupa'. This is repeated in a bilingual inscription at the temple, where it is styled 'Wat Wearuwanaram Vihan'.
