Chiang Mai Doi Suthep Wat Pha Lat and Wat Phra That Doi Suthep Day Tour Guide

Doi Suthep is famous for Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, but there is also a hidden temple that captures the hearts of some tourists with its simple and tranquil atmosphere. Recommended itinerary: Visit Wat Pha Lat first, then Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. First, take a taxi from the old city to the entrance of Wat Pha Lat, and navigate to What Pa Lat Hike. You can start hiking at the entrance. The trail is not difficult, and it takes about half an hour to reach Wat Pha Lat. The temple is full of ancient mystery and tranquility. Compared to the various magnificent temples, this place is more like a place for hermits to practice. Some foreign tourists meditate under the small waterfall. After visiting Wat Pha Lat, walk outside and you will see a songthaew. There are not many at noon, and the price is 80 baht per person. The car will leave when it is full. We left with six people. The mountain road took a long time, and some people got carsick, probably because they were not used to the swaying songthaew. Wat Phra That Doi Suthep requires a ticket of 30 baht. After walking through a section of stairs, the entrance is on the left, which is not obvious. You need to take off your shoes to enter Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. Walk around the temple, and there are many believers. After leaving the temple, walk to the observation deck behind it, and you can overlook the whole view of Chiang Mai. If you come at night, it must be spectacular. This is also a feature of Chiang Mai. If you want to see the night view, you can take a songthaew directly to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. Take a taxi to Chiang Mai University, and there will be a songthaew, 50 baht per person. There are many songthaews when you come down from Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, with clearly marked prices, 50 baht to Chiang Mai University, 80 baht to Nimman Road, 100 baht to Tha Phae Gate, etc.
