Thailand is one of the most famous tourist countries in Southeast Asia but one of the destinations that's often overlooked in Thailand is Chiang Mai which is maybe because there is no beach in this city. However, Chiang Mai should be added in any bucket list because of its misty and evergreen mountains, colourful hill tribes, a variety of interesting activities, a paradise for shoppers with antiques, handicraft products and delicious cuisine.
Wat Phra That Doi Suthep (often referred to as Doi Suthep) is one of the most important sacred temples in Chiang Mai in particular and Thailand in general. It is located at an elevation of 1,073m on the Mount Suthep's slopes. The wat is a true example of northern Thailand architecture with a 306-step staircase flanked by naga and contains many precious relics of the Buddha.
Famous for being one of the most noteworthy attractions and its convenient location which is located in the centre of Chiang Mai, Wat Chedi Luang (also known as the Jedi Luang or The temple of the Great Stupa) attracts a great number of tourists each year. This Wat was built between 1385 and 1402 in the King Saen Muang Ma reign with 80 metres tall. This is used to be the home of the Emerald Buddha.
Situated at the end of Ratchadamnoen Road inside the old city wall, Wat Phra Singh (also referred as "The temple of the Lion Buddha" or "The Monastery of the Lion Buddha") is well-known as the second most venerated temple in this mountainous city after Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. This wat houses great three main structures which contain some stunning and ancient temples which make it is one of the most attractive places.
Renowned as "The Roof of Thailand", Doi Inthanon National Park is one of the most famous national parks in Thailand. This park covers an area of nearly 482 square kilometres in Chiang Mai province with stunning waterfalls, remote hill tribes, a diversity of fauna and flora, some off-the-beaten paths and breathtaking viewpoints.
This is a unique attraction in Chiang Mai that brings you some unforgettable moments. This Art centre is brilliant, colourful, bright and most important is that you can spend your time taking many interesting photos like taking the photos of surfing giant waves, fighting off dinosaurs or crossing wooden bridges across waterfalls and also have great fun and laughs along the way.
