The seven-spired square chedi was inspired by designs at Bodhagaya. Building started in 1455 under King Thilokanat to commemorate the 2000th day since the Buddha died. Example was the Mahabodhi temple in Bodh Gaya (India). Wat Ched Yod became a spiritual center of the first order under King Thilokanat. On the temple compounds there is also a big square chedi in Sukhothai style that contains the ashes of King Thilokanat. |
