"Chinthes and Buddhas"
The base of the Chedi at Wat Chiang Yuen has a lot of statues on and around it, as you can see here.
"The Chinthe is a leogryph (lion-like creature) that is often seen at the entrances of pagodas and temples in Burma, Cambodia, Laos and is related to the Singha in Thailand and the Simha in Sri Lanka as well as other similar lion statues in other parts of Asia." -Wikipedia
