The stunning panoramic city views from the temple grounds are breathtaking on a clear day
• 10:30 am: Step into a world of wonder at Wat Jed Yod, an enchanting Lanna temple complex on Chiang Mai’s outskirts. With unique architecture that combines Lanna, Rattanakosin, Lao, Chinese, and Indian influences, this royal temple dating back to the 15th century will leave you in awe. Marvel at the chedi enshrining the ashes of King Tilokkarat and soak in the tranquility of this stunning temple
• 11:30 am: Stroll through the ethereal flower garden temple of Wat Suan Dok, situated just west of the old walled part of Chiang Mai. Admire the grandeur of the tallest golden chedi in Sri Lankan style, soaring to an astounding 48 meters high and containing the Buddha’s relic. Be amazed by the numerous smaller white chedis housing the ashes of generations of the Chiang Mai Royal Family. It was here, in 1477, that the 8th World Buddhist Council convened to discuss the texts of the Tripitaka
• 1:00 pm: Delve into the splendor of the revered Wat Phra Singh, one of the most fascinating and ancient temples within Chiang Mai’s old city walls.
