Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep

When we first arrived in Chiang Mai we hopped on motorbikes for the first time and rode the long winding road up to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep.  After walking up the 309 steps to the temple, we were presented with a gorgeous view of the city below.  Last weekend I revisited Doi Suthep early in the morning when it was still surrounded by the morning mist.  

side note: we didn't realize the little girl was in our photo until later.   












pictures from the top: the bottom of the 300 steps with Patrick, Libby, and Daniel,  the golden chedi, views from above, by ringing the bells you alert the spirits that you have been to a place of worship, traditional dancers, farangs on motorbikes.
