Ancient temples suffer quake damage Cracks have been found in an historic 400-year-old temple in the northern province of Chiang Mai following several recent earthquakes, moderate in impact but adding to the cumulative damage suffered over time. Cracks were found in the walls of the over 400-year-old assembly hall and the principle Buddha image in Wat Saohin here after a 4.5 magnitude earthquake rocked the province on Tuesday. Murals that were painted more than a century ago, telling stories of the former incarnations of the Lord Buddha, were also damaged.
