Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep

"Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep is a temple often referred to as "Doi Suthep" although this is actually the name of the mountain it is located on. The temple is located 15 km from the city of Chiang Mai and is a sacred site to many Thai people. From the temple impressive views of Chiang Mai can be seen and it remains a popular destination of foreign visitors."



Indeed the temple was on top of a hill which we reached via a red taxi shared with 8 people.
On top of being one of the most beautiful temples we've seen, it was also the first one we visited on a Sunday. We had the chance to witness people praying and making their offering to Buddha.
Please watch respectfully.
