Spending a few hours at Wat Phra Doi Suthep is an important part of the cultural exploration of

Chiang Mai as it is considered to be one of the most sacred temples in the region. It is believed that
the temple was established in 1383 by King Keu Naone, and the objective was to treasure a bone
shard of Buddha.

As the temple is located on a mountain, you will need to climb a staircase with 306 steps to reach
here. However, you are sure to get refreshed upon seeing the architectural brilliance and collection
of statues, and experiencing the unmatched serenity this divine site features. Besides, the views
from up here are truly stunning.
