Temple Hopping


Wat Umong: This historical temple is placed in a forest and was built by King Meng Rai in 1296.
It’s a well known meditation center that attracts Buddhists from around the world with its calm
environment and minimalist tunnel-like architecture that works well for meditation.


Wat Phradat Doi Suthep: This is perhaps the most sacred and opulent temple in Chiang Mai. It
was built in 1383 by King Keu Naone and can be reached by a 306-step staircase marked bymythical sea serpent statues. It overlooks the mountains of Chiang Mai and is 11 kilometers
away from the City centre. You can reach the temple by walking up the stairs or taking an
electric tram that operates from 6am to 6pm.


Wat Pha Lat


Wat Pha Lat: is another hidden jungle temple that was said to have been formed in 1355.
History says that King Kuena’s white elephant stopped at this place to rest while embarking on a
walk up a mountain, where it died. Following this news, King Kuena ordered a temple to be
constructed where the elephant passed, known as Doi Suthep temple as well as temples to be
made at the other spots the elephant rested, which led to Wat Pha Lat.

This temple has become
a well known resting spot for monks travelling to the larger temple and it is now a residence and
meditation site for monks.
