We take the winding road up the side of the hill overlooking the city to visit the most important temple in Chiang Mai, the 600 year-old Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, which lies 3,500 feet above sea level. Inside you will find the symbol of the city, the copper-plated Chedi that is topped by a five-tier gold parasol, which contains relics of the Lord Buddha. From the terrace on a clear day, you will have a fine panoramic view of the entire city. Once you get there, that final climb up the 306 steps of the Naga staircase (a Thai mythological Dragon-headed serpent) will be worth it!
In the city we will see the King's glorious flower garden temple at Wat Saun Dok with a large central Stupa and Wat Chedi Louang.
