What it is

Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is Chiang Mai's most revered temple, perched on a forested mountain with a glittering golden chedi said to enshrine a relic of the Buddha. A half-day morning tour pairs it with Wat Pha Lat, a tranquil, moss-covered temple hidden in the jungle along the old pilgrims' Monk's Trail. With an early start you beat the heat and the crowds, and enjoy panoramic views over Chiang Mai from the mountainside.
