Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, a magnificent Buddhist temple draped in gold, also known as Doi Suthep Temple, the holiest temple in northern Thailand and one of the most sacred temples in Chiang Mai Province. Wat means temple in Thai.
Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is a popular destination, attracting tourists and pilgrims every day. Its popularity is well deserved, and the temple complex is so vast that you won’t mind sharing the experience. In fact, the panoramic view from the top of the mountain over the city and the land below is so breathtaking that you may not even notice the crowds.
To reach the top of Wat Doi Suthep Temple, you must climb the 306 elegant steps of the Naga Staircase. There is also a funicular cable car to take you to the top, and the fare is 20 baht. Nagas are dragon-like deities in Hindu and Buddhist mythology, and these sacred serpents run the length of the staircase, guarding the gates to the entrance. Although they may seem daunting at first, the foliage-covered steps and their guardians are truly one of the highlights of the visit
When you reach the top, you will be rewarded with golden pagodas, shrines, bells, statues, holy Buddha relics and a golden chedi, one of the temple’s holiest structures. A legendary white elephant statue sits near the top of the Naga stairs. This is no ordinary elephant – it commemorates the sacred white elephant that carried the relics of the Buddha himself to the top of Doi Suthep mountain, trumpeted three times and then lay down to rest.
There are numerous areas on the temple grounds to pay respect to the shrines, kneel in prayer, and receive blessings with offerings and incense. Elder monks offer blessings to those who wish to receive them in one of the two prayer rooms that are open to the public.
The centerpiece of the experience for many visitors is the view from the summit. The view of Chiang Mai over the edge of the mountain shows the countryside spread out into the horizon, Chiang Mai city in perfect
Kew Mae Pan Nature Trail is a must-do hiking and trekking trail not to be missed by nature lovers. It is located inside the area of Doi Inthanon National Park, home to Thailand’s highest peak.
Visitors to the National Park should include visiting this trail on their itinerary because the reward of hiking this short distance (2.78km) natural walk could be the most beautiful panoramic view you will ever see in Thailand.
This green highly-rated trail takes about 2-3 hours to finished and suitable for beginner level hikers. However, it is not recommended for people who cannot climb stairs because some trail parts require uphill hiking.The trail sits at 2,200 meters above sea level, just a few hundred meters below Thailand’s highest peak (2,565 meters). Take note that Doi Inthanon National Park is opened all year but Kew Mae Pan Nature Trail is closed from June to October i.e. the raining season.
The trail does not charge an entrance fee (already covered by the National Park entrance fee) but due to the delicate thick forest, it is compulsory to hire a guide, which is the local Hmong hill tribe people who are highly expert on the route but speak very little English. The guide fee is only 200 baht for a group of visitors (not more than 10 people). At the starting point, you will be given a bamboo hiking stick, which the guide call them the “wooden support”.
Kew Mae Pan is a circular hiking trail, meaning visitors will go all the way right back to the starting point led by the Hmong guide. The walking trail can be divided into 3 stages, consists of a total of 21 stations. At each station, there is an interpretive sign in Thai and English language explaining different landscape and ecosystems of the trail.
The first stage is a dense cloud forest walking trail (station 1 – 6) full of moss and ferns. The evergreen forest is a watershed area because of its key role in trapping moisture in the cloud. One can hike slowly enjoying the cold fresh oxygen from thin air.
Pha Dok Siew Nature Trail
For many visitors to Doi Inthanon National Park, this trek is the highlight of the day. A local Karen guide will lead you (mostly downhill) through forest and farmland to their village. The forest walk follows the course of the Mae Klang river that supplies the village and farms with water.Between the rice fields you will see hillsides full of irrigated strawberries, and close to the village you will walk past coffee plantations. The walk takes about 2 hours or 2.8 kilometers, When you reach Mae Klang Luang village at the end, you can sample some of the local coffee that is roasted and ground on site.
