The locals would describe it as, you have not visited Chiangmai unless you have been to Doi Suthep. Built in the early 19th Buddhist century, the beauty of the temple is marked by seven-headed serpent statues that line the stairs to the temple where a Chiang Saen style golden pagoda and all its exquisite Lanna architecture sits. The view of Chiang Mai from here is just phenomenal. Make time for a photo stop at the Huay Thao Village for its gigantic straw King Kong models. The King Kong family consists of 3 gorillas stretching from 4m to 8m tall with each having its own ladder. Get excellent shots of yourselves on the figures with the crystal-clear skies and green fields in the background. Visit Wieng Kum Kam, the recently discovered lost city formed in 1286. End the day at Sunday night market walking street which offers some of the best crafts, arts, and food that the Northern Thailand region has to offer.

Begin your Chiangmai old city tour on a tuk tuk. Make a stop at Wat Chedi Luang. Meaning “Temple of the big Stupa”, this temple was constructed during the 14th and 15th centuries and was home of the famous Emerald Buddha which can now be found in the Grand Palace of Bangkok. Lunch is the Khao Soi, the famous northern curry chicken noodles. Next is the 700-year-old Wat Phra Singh temple located within the walls of old Chiang Mai city and is one of the most venerated temples in Northern Thailand. Wat Sri Suphan or The Silver Temple is covered in sparkling silver from the outside walls to the roof that never fails to grasp great visitors’ attention at any time. Sit back relax and cool with a set of dessert (for 2) in one of the city’s internet celebrity café.
