Doi Suthep
Sightseeing

Doi Suthep

Doi Suthep is Chiang Mai's guardian mountain and most sacred landmark, its summit crowned by the magnificent Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, a gold-plated stupa visible from much of the city below. According to legend, a relic of the Buddha was placed on a white elephant which wandered the mountain until it chose the summit as its resting place, upon which the first shrine was built in 1383. The 306 steps of the Naga staircase lead pilgrims up to the temple complex, where panoramic views of Chiang Mai and the Ping River valley unfold.

Sightseeing

Wat Phra Singh

Wat Phra Singh is Chiang Mai's most revered and magnificent temple, housing the Phra Singh Buddha image, one of northern Thailand's most sacred religious objects, in an elaborate gilded ordination hall that is a masterpiece of Lanna temple architecture. Founded in 1345 CE, the temple was the religious center of the Chiang Mai kingdom and its beautifully proportioned buildings showcase the distinctive Lanna style with their sweeping tiered roofs, intricate wooden gables, and golden naga serpents. The surrounding walled compound with ancient trees and meditative atmosphere makes Wat Phra Singh both a living religious center and an unmissable cultural heritage site.
