Itinerary

We’ll walk on the same trail where monks and Buddhists did decades ago, and it will show us how dedicated they are in order to pay respect to Buddha in two Temples:

1) Hidden Forest Temple: Pha Lat Temple.

Pha Lat Temple, a terrific combination of religion and nature, is probably the prettiest forest temple in Chiang Mai. At this temple, you will also be able to learn the art of Martial/ Kong Fu.

2) Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep

After a break, we will start a 50-min real/ challenging hike journey. However, if you see the HILLTOP View, you will be pretty sure that it Worths your time…and sweats.

During the journey, we’ll see a small waterfall and a different personal side of Chiang Mai. At the end of the trail which is 1000m height above sea level, we’ll arrive at Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep temple.

You will have enough time to explore the temple and I will arrange Songthaew to get us down and drop you at Chiang Mai University.

Stop At:

• Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, 2948 Chino Hills Pkwy, Chino Hills, CA 91709-4286
