What it is

The southwest corner of the moat, one of the four bastions (chaeng) added to the wall in later restorations. Where two straight sides of the moat meet, and where the one-way traffic makes its turn. Ku Hueang is a reliquary: a chedi to a jailer, or a prince, depending on the telling.

Ku Huang citadel: the south-west corner of the old city of Chiang Mai. Looking towards the east.
