Discover two of northern Thailand’s most memorable cultural sights on this half-day tour from Chiang Mai. Visit the revered Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, one of the region’s most sacred temples, set high on the mountain with sweeping views over the city below.
Learn about the temple’s origins, dating back to 1383, and the legend of the sacred Buddha relic that led to its hilltop location. You’ll also experience the atmosphere of a Hmong village, adding a cultural dimension to your journey beyond the city.
Reach the temple via the famous 306-step staircase, traditionally seen as a meditative approach, or take the tram for a more comfortable ascent.
