Locals say you haven’t truly arrived in Chiang Mai until you’ve been to Doi Suthep Temple. It is the most famous of Chiang Mai's temples. During 4 hour, you will climb a staircase of over 300 steps leading to the temple at the end of the winding road up the mountain. Your reward is the stunning panorama of the entire Chiang Mai and beyond. Following we continue further up the mountain to visit an H’mong tribe village.
Detail Itinerary
This tour features a scenic drive through the most historic areas of Chiang Mai, including a pass through the old city walls, city gates and moat. The drive continues into Chiang Mai’s tourist attraction area, past the local market, foreign consulates, government buildings and ‘Tapae Gate’ before continuing to the acclaimed temple Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, home to a holy relic of the Lord Buddha and considered by many to be the most sacred Wat in northern Thailand. Built by King Gue-Na in 1383 and situated 3,500 feet above sea level, this temple offers an interesting challenge as it contains a flight of over 300 steps to reach its top level. Once on top of the summit, visitors will be treated to a panoramic view of the city before leaving to visit the primitive Meo Pui village, a community known for its unique culture and colorful costumes.
