🛕 Wat Pha Lat, Chiang Mai - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
Wat Pha Lat in Chiang Mai, Thailand
Wat Pha Lat is a tranquil, lesser-known Buddhist temple nestled in the jungle on the slopes of Doi Suthep, just outside Chiang Mai. It’s famous for its peaceful forest setting, beautiful stone statues, waterfalls, and as a rest stop along the Monk’s Trail, a popular hiking path to Doi Suthep temple.
Tips:
• Hike the Monk’s Trail (40–45 minutes, moderate, shady) for a rewarding arrival.
• Dress modestly—cover shoulders and knees, as with any Thai temple.
• Explore quiet corners, statues, and forest views—ideal for reflection and photography.
• Early morning and weekdays are especially calm for a serene visit.
• Bring water and some cash; there are limited facilities at the temple
