Wat Ton Kwen (Northern Thai: ᩅᩢ᩠ᨯᨲᩫ᩠᩶ᨶᩮᨠ᩠ᩅᩁ; Thai: วัดต้นเกว๋น), also known as Wat Inthrawat (Northern Thai: ᩅᩢ᩠ᨯᩍᩕᨶ᩠ᨴᩣᩅᩣ᩠ᩈ; Thai: วัดอินทราวาส), is a Buddhist temple in Nong Khwai, Hang Dong district, Chiang Mai. It was originally built as a resting place for the procession of the Phra Borommathat Si Chom Thong relic during the traditional Hae Phra Chao Khao Wiang ceremony. Wat Ton Kwen is renowned for its well-preserved and highly valuable traditional Lanna architecture. It was registered as a historic site in 1983 and was later recognized as an Outstanding Conservation Building by the Association of Siamese Architects in 1989.
