Description: |
|
Perhaps the most famous and important temple in Chiang Mai every
visitor must pay a visit. On top of Doi Suthep Hill, at 3,520
feet above sea level, finds the revered golden Phra That (chedi)
of Wat Phra That Doi Suthep rises against the sunlight. The
temple was built in 1383 to enshrine Buddha’s relics. You can
actually drive uphill to the higher platform but a lot of
devout Buddhists choose to pilgrim by walking 290 steps
up to the hilltop. After praying the Phra That for good lucks,
don not forget to proceed to the terrace to soak up panoramic
views of Chiang Mai town and surrounding countrysides.
Opening hours: 6.00 am - 5.00 pm |
