Summary

Description
English: The funeral pyre for Chan Kusalo (the Buddhist "archbishop" of Northern Thailand) two days before the cremation ceremony at Wat Chedi Luang in Chiang Mai. The pyre is in the shape of a nok hatsidiling (a creature which is part elephant, part serpent and part bird from the mythical Himaphan forest). The gold leaf covered coffin has already been placed inside the Burmese inspired mondop-like structure resting on top of the body of the creature.
