🙏🏻🛕Wat Phra That Doi Suthep – Chiang Mai

Anyone visiting Chiang Mai who hasn't climbed Doi Suthep has been considered to have not arrived yet! 🙈 This is truly a landmark of the province. 🚗 There are several ways to get to the temple: by red car, by renting a motorbike, or by driving. The road up is winding and uphill, with stunning views along the way. 🍃 At the top, you'll find a long Naga staircase with over 300 steps. Alternatively, you can take the cable car. 🛗 ✨ The highlight here is the dazzling golden chedi, which catches the eye in the sunlight. ☀️ There's also a panoramic viewpoint of Chiang Mai from above. 📸 🐒 Another charming feature that many people recognize is the "Mom," the temple's mythical creature. Chiang Mai residents believe these are guardians who protect the sacred grounds from evil. 🛡️ They are beautifully decorated around the temple grounds. 📌 Opening Hours: 6:00 AM - 8:00 PM 🎟️ Admission: Free for Thais / 30 baht for foreigners ⸻ 💡 Tips • If you go in the morning, the weather is cool and there are fewer people. 🙏 • Dress appropriately before entering the temple. 👗 • Bring water with you, as the stairs are a bit tiring. 😆 ⸻ If you're planning a trip to Chiang Mai, don't forget to pay your respects at Phra That Doi Suthep. 💛 Have you ever seen a real moth? 🐉 #DoiSuthep #ChiangMai #Worship #MakeMerit #VisitChiangMai
