City & Temples & Wat Doi Suthep



Private tour: Visit to Wat Doi Suthep, tucked away in the mountains at 3,280 feet. The temple is reached by a staircase with 290 steps, flanked by a naga balustrade on either side. The monastery was built by King Gue-Na in 1383. The center is a big Chedi (spired pagoda), which contains partial relics of Lord Buddha. You then pass the city’s biggest market – Talad Wararot before going to two important temples: Wat Chedi Luang and Wat Phra Sing.
