This morning ascend the forested slopes of Doi Suthep Mountain to visit Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai’s most revered temple. Crowned with a gleaming golden stupa and surrounded by sweeping views across the city and valley, this sacred site has drawn pilgrims for centuries. After exploring its murals and shrines, mingle with local residents at Talat Warorod, Chiang Mai’s largest and liveliest market. Here, alongside colorful textiles, handicrafts, and flowers, vendors sell the everyday wares of Thai life—from cookware to fishing nets.

Continue to Wat Phra Singh, a venerated pilgrimage destination within the city walls, famed for its graceful architecture and treasured Buddha image. Nearby, the Lanna-style chedi of Wat Chedi Luang offers a striking glimpse into the spiritual and cultural heritage of the ancient Lanna Kingdom.
