Walk Around Wat Suan Dok

After spending the morning exploring all the attractions within Chiang Mai's old wall, it is time to go out with your motorbike and see what the rest of Chiang Mai has to offer. On our way towards the mountain, you should stop at Wat Suan Dok, a 14th Century temple known for its numerous beautiful white pagodas scattered throughout the temple ground.

Within the temple ground, you will find the 48 meters high golden Sri Lankan-style chedi that contains the relic of Buddha, and a large number of white pagodas containing the ashes of several generations of Chiang Mai's royal family. It is like a Christian graveyard and so please refrain from taking selfies and fun photos within Wat Suan Dok and be respectful when walking around all the white pagodas. The temple is open from 6 AM to 5 PM and the entrance fee is free.
