Wat Chedi Luang: Built between the 14th and 15th centuries, this impressive and famous temple is known for having the biggest stupa in the city. Besides its towering chedi, Wat Chedi Luang was also once the home of the Emerald Buddha that is now housed in Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok. Get to see the sprawling compound and striking Lanna-style design up close!
“I love Wat Chedi Luang and there's so much to see there – the more modern sanctuary and the ancient ruins, a reclining Buddha, and much more.” – JD, USA
Wat Phan Tao: Compared to Wat Chedi Luang, Wat Phan Tao will seem quite humble in size. However, don’t let its size fool you! This small temple is made out of intricately carved teak wood. It was also once a throne hall for King Mahotara Prateth before becoming a dedicated house of prayer.
Wat Phra Singh: This stunning and lavish building was built in the 14th century and is known as one of the city’s finest temples. With amazing grounds, acclaimed designs, and a mosaic-inlaid sanctuary, there is much to see and marvel at including the large Lion Buddha statue, gilded pagodas, artistic murals, and historical statues.
“I would say this is my favorite temple in Chiang Mai, if not the whole of Thailand. Simple yet classy, elegant yet humbling, and most of all very historic and significant. I was totally impressed by the artistry, elegance, and beauty of the Lanna-style architecture – it is truly a work of art.” – Krubee, Singapore
