Golden Temple (Wat Phra That Doi Kham)

Nestled on a forested mountain just outside Chiang Mai, the Golden Temple (Wat Phra That Doi Kham) has been a revered site in Thailand since its construction towards the end of the seventh century. The temple’s most striking feature is a 56-foot-tall (17-meter-tall) Buddha statue, draped in resplendent gold robes. Visitors can explore the serene surroundings and marvel at the imposing golden figure, which stands as a testament to the region’s rich spiritual heritage.
