SIGHTSEEING
Chiang Mai, Thailand is a breath of fresh air after the chaos of Bangkok. Picture a cute city filled with adorable boutique stores, countless restaurants, fun pockets to explore, markets, outdoor bars, and more. It’s all set against a mountain backdrop, where Doi Suthep sits perched at the top, overlooking the town. It is a dreamy destination, not only as a city to visit, but there are many day trips to enjoy outside of town as well.

Overlooking the city from its mountain throne, Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is one of northern Thailand's most sacred temples, and its founding legend is learned by every school kid in Chiang Mai. The wát is a beautiful example of northern Thai architecture, reached via a 306-step staircase flanked by naga (serpents); the climb is intended to help devotees accrue Buddhist merit.

Not to be confused with the small Wat Umong in the old city, this historic forest wát is famed for its sylvan setting and its ancient chedi, above a brick platform wormholed with passageways, built around 1380 for the 'mad' monk Therachan. Keep an eye out for the Sri Lankan–style stupa, and as you wander the arched tunnels, look for traces of the original murals and several venerated Buddha images.
