The temple is soooooo beautiful. But unfortunately, when we went, it was raining so we had fun dodging the rain. You can see from the gloomy sky but the sun was still shining (it’s just like Chiang Mai). The atmosphere is very cool and comfortable. There are so many trees. The pagoda is also very beautiful (I was talking to my friend and saying that the people of this era are really smart). But I could only take this many pictures. I don’t know if I walked around the whole place. I didn’t get to worship because the rain came before me. LOL (I was afraid that it would rain even harder so I hurried back. ;-;) Atmosphere 5/5 Beauty 4/5 Parking 2/5 (there really is very little parking 🥺🥺) My bad luck that I went on a rainy day 10/5!! #BeautifulTemplesAroundThailand #NorthernTeam #ChiangMaiTravel

#Beautiful temple If we talk about the unique shape of the pagoda that is different from Lanna temples, we have to give it to the beautiful pagoda of 'Wat Chet Yot'. Let me tell you that if you come to Chiang Mai, you must stop by this temple to ask for blessings and walk around to take pictures of the beautiful angles of the temple's architecture. For those who are into spiritual beliefs or those who were born in the year of the snake (the year of the small snake), you can come to pay homage and ask for blessings because it is a temple for the year of the snake. The temple is located at the entrance of Soi Chet Yot. If you come from Nimmanhaemin Road, go straight ahead and the temple will be on the left. It is open to visitors every day. #Thai temple #Old temple #Chiang Mai temple #Wat Chet Yot Chiang Mai #Tourist attractions in Chiang Mai #Visit Thai temples

It is an ancient temple built during the reign of King Tilokarat, King of the Mangrai Dynasty of Lanna in 1998. The highlight of this temple is that there are seven spires in one pagoda, an ancient site similar to the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya, India. This temple was once the site of the 8th World Tripitaka Council, and the Sri Maha Bodhi Pagoda in Bodh Gaya is considered the sacred relic of the birth year of the Snake according to the beliefs of the Lanna people. This temple is a very large area, peaceful, shady, and is a forest in the city surrounded by large trees. With a good atmosphere full of trees and sacred ancient sites, you will never get bored and stay for a long time. However, it is recommended to go in the morning or evening when there is less sun and it is not hot. This is another place that I would like to recommend for those who want to do cultural tourism.

This is another beautiful and old temple in Chiang Mai. It is easy to get to because it is in Muang District. There are many big trees inside the temple, so when you enter the temple, you will feel very cool. The temple is located on the main road with many cars passing by, but you will not feel like you are on the road at all when you enter the temple grounds. This is a beautiful place that you should not miss when visiting Chiang Mai.

It is a temple that King Tilokarat, the King of the Mangrai Dynasty of Lanna, ordered to be built in 1998 and invited Phra Uttamapanya Mahathera to be the first abbot. Along with planting the Sri Maha Bodhi tree, he gave the name of this temple "Photharam Mahawihan". But because the temple has 7 pagodas as spires, people generally call it "Wat Chet Yot". The temple is built of laterite decorated with stucco patterns, similar to the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya, India. The base of the pagoda is decorated with stucco images of deities all around, both sitting cross-legged and standing in different patterns. 🙏 🙏 If anyone has the opportunity to visit Chiang Mai, and especially if it is the year of the Snake, you should not miss it.
