Overview

About Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

The clinking of temple bells welcomes you to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, a must-see landmark perched atop a mountain. The temple offers stunning views of the city below and is a spiritual centerpiece of Chiang Mai. Arrive mid-morning to witness monks in prayer and explore the intricate carvings. The temple's golden chedi is best admired in the sunlight. Access is via a 306-step staircase; alternatively, take the tram for 20 THB. Look for the hidden viewpoint on the terrace's northern side.

Traveler tips

Take the tram if you prefer to avoid the climb.
