Tour Program Duration
: 08.30-12.00, 13.30-17.00
Take a trip to visit the northern Thailand's
most popular landmark, Doi Suthep,
where the fresh air and local culture can be enjoyed on a half-day
outing. Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep is 15 kms far from Chiang Mai city at 3,500 feet above sea level
situated on the summit of Doi Suthep. See the marvelous golden pagoda which was
originally built in 1383, and which is containing the holy relics of Lord
Buddha. You can enjoy the panoramic view of Chiang Mai City and Ping
valley from the summit of Doi Suthep. Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep is approached on foot by climbing a steep 290
stairway flanked by tremendous mythical Nagas,
which symbolize humanity's progress from earth into nirvana. However, for
the less energetic, taking a cable-car would be an easier and faster way
to reach Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep. |
