Doi Kham Chiangmai

Nice temple to visit during a fresh day as the way up to the temple demands some physical effort. The entrance was free to the view point, to enter the temple you will need to wear appropriate temple attire (cover shoulders and knees for women). Lovely view of the city and on a fresh day the breeze is pleasant. If you are going on a rainy day the steps can be slippery. There is no car access to the temple or ramps for people on wheelchairs, I also did not see any place to buy water once you leave the parking at the bottom of the temple. If you want to take some flower offerings, you can buy them on the road or in the shops near the parking (parking was free of charge) #chiangmaitravel

God's stunning and shining golden form, The sides are decorated with snakes and the impressive multi-storied pagoda roofs are admired by pilgrims.

In the monument, which translates to "Golden Hill School" in Thai, there are Buddhist images and galleries, Places to pray around the temple, In addition to the bells for the pilgrims, the statues of lions are also very beautiful. #traveldiaries #localguides #100waysoftravel

Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

#songkran2024This temple was highly recommended by the locals in Chiang Mai. We made our way by taxi to the hilltop temple. There were many stray dogs along the way. When we reached the temple, there were numerous vendors near the entrance. We climbed 309 steps to reach the temple. For a small entrance fee, we made our way in. Shoes can not be worn, and women can not show their shoulders or legs. So dress accordingly. I carried a lightweight gauze type shawl and wore long sun dresses during my visit just so I wouldn't be denied access anywhere. I had never been in a temple prior to this. It was beautiful with the morning sun shining on the gold structures, monks praying, offerings, flowers, incense, water, candles, and bells. We spent hours wandering through the property. It's burning season in January, so the views were hazy.
