Program & Itinerary :

The idea of this trip is to visit Chiang Mai most sacred temple, Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep. This temple was built in 1383. It is located 15 kms from the city and 3,500 feet above sea level, at this level there is an excellent panoramic view over Chiang Mai city and Ping valley. The temple is approached on foot by climbing a steep stairway comprising 290 steps called "Naga Stairway". The less energetic may ascend by a cable-car instead of the stairway. The temple's gold plated chedi which lies in the middle of marble courtyard contains a piece of holy relics of Lord Buddha. This temple and its golden chedi attract Buddhist pilgrims from all over the world throughout a year.

After worship at Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, we continue the trip by a truck passing several rain-forest mountains along bumpy road to visit a Hmong (Meo) hill tribe village. On the way, enjoy the beautiful scenery along road sides. Arrive the village and observe the simple life and unique customs, also, chitchat with the hill tribe people and obtain the opportunity to take photos with them.
