Wiang Kum Kam is the recently restored original settlement along the Ping River, predating Chiang Mai. It was flooded and abandoned more than 700 years ago; that move became more understandable in 2005, when the ancient city was flooded three separate times and the river left its banks in that area of Chiang Mai.
The main temple of the town is Wat Chedi Liem (Wat Kuu Kham), which is still occupied by monks.
