Wat Phra That Hariphunchai was built in 1651 during the reign of King Athitayarat.

Wat Phra That Hariphunchai Woramahawihan is located in the heart of Lamphun and is surrounded by streets on all sides. It was built in 1651. The gateway is particularly noteworthy. Before entering the temple, one must pass through the intricately patterned brick and mortar gate. This ancient structure, dating back to the Srivijaya period, consists of a stepped arch. In front of the gateway, a pair of large lions stand majestically on pedestals approximately one meter high. These lions were created during the reign of King Athitayarat, who commissioned the palace as a royal temple. Beyond the gateway lies the large royal temple. It features a gallery on all sides and a portico at the front and rear. The temple was rebuilt, replacing the old one, which was destroyed by a storm in 1923.

Located in the heart of Lamphun, the temple is surrounded by four roads: Attharot Road to the north, Chai Mongkhon Road to the south, Rop Muang Road to the east, and Inthayongyot Road to the west. It is situated approximately 150 meters from the provincial building. It was built in 1651 under King Athitayarat. Wat Phra That Hariphunchai features a unique gate. Before entering the temple, one passes through a gate made of brick and mortar.

It was built during the reign of King Athitayarat, who established the palace as a Sangkharam (royal temple). Beyond the gate is the large Wihan Luang temple, with balconies and verandas on the front and back. Built in 1915 on the site of the old temple, it served as a place for merit collections and religious ceremonies on every Buddhist holiday. Inside are three Buddha statues made of brick and mortar, lacquered and gilded on glass bases, as well as several medium-sized metal Buddha statues from the early and middle Chiang Saen period. Behind the royal chapel lies Phra Borommathat Hariphunchai, which houses the hair relics of the Buddha in a golden shrine. The chedi consists of a lotus-shaped base with a recessed lotus-shaped pedestal, followed by a three-tiered circular pedestal supporting a round, bell-shaped body, and a recessed throne. The chedi resembles Phra That Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai province in appearance. It has two rows of satibanchon (galleries of iron and brass spears) and golden ships on the outer fences to the north and south. Garlands and parasols adorn the four corners, and four towers rise on each side. A seated Buddha statue stands in each hall.
