My favourite place on doi suthep was the first waterfall, I forget it's name. If you keep climbing up the rocks you get to a perfect place to sit in it, which is the most refreshing thing ever, especially in the heat. The temple at the top is ok, be warned there's a serious amount of steps to climb, to... More

Everyone says this is a beautiful place and that it is! The tuk-tuk ride up the windy hills was an experience in itself. Our driver seemed to think that the best way to deal with all of the quick curves was to take them as quickly as possible. Everyone in the truck was feeling queasy by the time we arrived.... More

The hill tribe kids were all around, trying to ask you to take a photo with them as an exchange for a little money. The fall is quite small somehow. There is nothing much to see in this village.

As experienced travellers we found Doi Sut Hep and the Buddha a bit dissapointing. The best was the overview of the city. The top of Doi Sut Hep is equipped with tourist stalls and shows.

Tip.... you can take a Red Bath bus up from west of the gate for 50 baht a person instead of paying a 1000 baht for tour or taxi. This Was my 3rd visit and on a clear day it can be spectacular. The only set back is that it is a the windiest road going up and you feel... More

Beautiful temple perched high on a mountainside overlooking Chiang Mai. I enjoy renting a motorcycle for the day and visiting the hillltribe village a couple of kilometers past Doi Suthep then stopping at Doi Suthep on the way back. You DO NOT have to take the pricey elevator to the temple simply walk up the stairway at the northern (uphill)... More

I did some hillwalking with others in this park. Take a taxi to the Chiang Mai Zoo and from there it's less than kilometre to the entrance of the park.
