Chiang Mai is an ancient city that will leave you wanting more. Come and explore its beauty!
One of the most prestigious and holiest temples of Chiang Mai. located far up on the hill overlooked of Chiang Mai City.Be sure to walk up to the main golden stupa, however, if you do not want to walk along the way, you can use the funicular car with a return ticket for ฿100
A lot of people there but it’s worth for the great view about the whole city and area around Chiang Mai. Quite a few steps to climb up and a good car is recommended for the way up the mountain.
Amazing temple to visit. Have to climb the stars to reach the temple. For those that are unable to climb, there is a lift to bring you up the temple. Beautiful view from the temple courtyard, able to see Chiang Mai international airport from the temple. There is also a cafe selling hot coffee that’s reasonable priced
I can't think of any other words to describe this place except "magnificent". It's super shocking, the feeling of golden light. For non-Buddhists, this is a beautiful attraction. You can see the beautiful scenery of Chiang Mai from the observation deck. The night view will be more beautiful. For Buddhists, this is a holy place for praying. Seeing people's pious appearance, it seems that your heart will become particularly peaceful. Many people know that you have to take off your shoes when entering the temple. I want to remind you that the temperature in Thailand is very high, and the floor tiles in the temple are made of materials like ceramic tiles. It's super hot, really super hot, so please wear thick socks.
Shuanglong Temple, located in Sutie Mountain, is the best place to watch the night scenery of Chiang Mai. It is suggested that you travel at the wrong peak and choose to visit it at 7 p.m. because you can avoid the crowds and see the night scenery of Chiang Mai and the splendid Shuanglong Temple. Absolutely an unforgettable journey. Special reminder: Shuanglong Temple seems to prohibit tourists from entering after 8:30 p.m., so remember!
Only after walking through this famous Buddhist temple can you understand the skills of sightseeing: you have to take an electric cable car to go up to the temple, and you have to walk down the stairs one by one until you can take a photo with the "Double Dragon" for the best condition. After appreciating the various styles of the ancient capital of Chiang Mai, this "northern rose" of Thailand surrounded by the Himalayas is impressive for its simple folk customs, fresh and natural environment, and Buddhist temples open everywhere (the boundless influence of religion, there are more than 40,000 Buddhist temples in Thailand). From the initial tuk-tuk in the ancient city, tasting tropical fruits, admiring the charming Phalaenopsis, the hilarious elephant trunk performance, watching the Double Dragon Temple, the ancient city of Gonggan, and even the wonderful 3D illusion art gallery... In short, I want to visit Chiang Mai again.
It is on Suthep Mountain west of the old city. It is worth a visit. We rented a rickshaw for our family of four and one child for the whole day, including Doi Suthep Temple and the Royal Palace for 800 baht. We should be able to bargain, but the driver was very good. He tied two bicycles on the roof of the rickshaw and waited patiently for us to visit each attraction. It is written in the guidebook of the temple, so I won't say much. Don't forget that you can see the panoramic view of Chiang Mai from the platform in the backyard of the temple.
Wat Phra That Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai is an important temple. When I say important, the golden pagoda and canopy of the temple are magnificent. In this temple, there is a time for chanting scriptures every day, which is unshakable and takes place at a fixed time. This temple is located on the top of a mountain. The temperature all year round is suitable for human living environment. It is a good place to cultivate the mind and cultivate the character.
