🛕 Wat Phra That Doi Phra Chan is located in Pa Tan Subdistrict, Mae Tha District, Lampang Province. Originally, there were only ruins on the mountaintop. Later, a chedi was built on the mountaintop and renovated continuously until it became a tradition to climb Doi Phra Chan to worship the chedi once a year. Most recently, in 2008, a major renovation was carried out, combining Lanna architecture with a Japanese atmosphere.
🎏🎐 On the right-hand side, there is a large Buddha statue that is a replica of the Daibutsu at Kotoku Temple in Japan. On the left-hand side, there is the Phra That Doi Phra Chan, 5 golden Buddha statues, the ordination hall, and 628 Naga stairs.

.
It takes about 30-40 minutes to drive from Lampang city
When Yui went, we went on a weekday
You can drive up there yourself, but there's very little parking
If anyone comes, I recommend parking in the parking lot
And take a local's car up, it's more convenient
The fare is 20 baht per person
Or if you have good legs, you can walk up
There are only about six hundred steps of stairs ^^

Chiang Mai drawing cafe, next to the Ping River!🫶🏻
This cafe is located by the Ping River in Chiang Mai. The atmosphere is very chill. We went with friends and it was fun. The dessert menu is quite diverse. There is both an air-conditioned area inside the shop and an outdoor area where you can enjoy the natural breeze. The indoor area is decorated a lot. There are many patterns. It is not very wide but it is not cramped. The outdoor area is a natural atmosphere because it is located by the river. There are many tables. When we went outside, there were not many people. It was very comfortable to sit! There were no mosquitoes either. 55535355 The shop is great. The shop allows you to choose what kind of art to do. There are both pictures (which we did) and ceramic doll paintings. The ones we did were free (when you finish your work, you cannot take it home. You can hang it in the shop). But the other types cost more. 📍Address: By the Ping River, Chiang Mai
