Visit one of Thailand's most famous temples and a traditional village at the top of Doi Suthep. Comfortable roundtrip transportation from your hotel in Chiang Mai and a friendly local guide will make travel easier.
Containing a holy relic of Lord Buddha, Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep is the most celebrated temple in the area. Climbing the challenging flight of over 306 steps, flanked by enormous mythological Nagas, is rewarded by an unparalleled view of the city from 1,053 above sea level.
Your guided tour continues to Doi Pui, a Meo hill tribe village set on the far heights of Doi Suthep-Pui National Park. Spend the rest of the morning in this quiet place where you can get souvenirs at a good price before returning to your hotel in Chiang Mai.
