POTD: Wat Phra That Doi Suthe

From 2025 03 23 Chiang Mai

Today's photo-of-the-day was taken at Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. According to Wikipedia, it "is a Theravada Buddhist temple (wat) in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. The temple is often referred to as "Doi Suthep" although this is actually the name of the mountain where it is located. It is a sacred site to many Thai people...The temple is said to have been founded in 1383 when the first stupa was built."

Bonus photos are after the jump.

"Above old Chiang Mai,
A mountain learns devotion,
and teaches it back."
