Wat Phra That Doi Suthep (Chiang Mai)

This famed temple, situated on a mountain slope high above the city of Chiang Mai, is one of the most sacred temples in all of Thailand, as it is said to house a part of one of the Buddha’s shoulder bones inside its gold chedi. For this, and perhaps many other reasons, the temple is said to get some 120,000 visitors a month. Although the temple’s origin is unclear, it may have been built in the late 14th Century CE.
