• Admission is free, except to the main viharn (50 Thai Baht).
• As you visit temples, try to see the differences as well as the similarities.
• It's also a great opportunity to sit and chat with the young monks. Peaceful place to spend an hour or two.
• Note that it's a sacred place so please remember to dress respectfully.
• Take your time to see all the smaller buildings with lots of interesting items inside.

Wat Chedi Luang is a temple complex with a partially crumbled 15th-century chedi and a pillar believed to protect the city.

• Wat Chedi Luang is not quite as grand as Wat Phra Singh, it's quite simply and amazing to take a look.
• There is a dress code for the temple, so remember to bring something to cover shoulders or a longer sleeved shirt.
• What makes this unique is the ability to sit under a tree and talk to the monks. They like to practice their English ( other languages too) and share their stories.
• There're many benches so you can sit and take in this sacred site. Enjoy the the temple artwork and take advantage of the chance to chat with the monks.

Wat Chiang Man is a Buddhist temple inside the old city (which is contained within the city walls and moat) of Chiang Mai, in northern Thailand.

• This pleasant temple complex features some sort of elephant pavilion that is very photogenic.
• Several other photo opportunities can be found in the complex, including an exotic looking building on stilts and surrounded by water.
• If you are feeling thirsty after all that sightseeing, there is a great little restaurant/bar just over the road, as you leave the main entrance - Walk Inn 2.
• Unfortunately there are Thai women outside with caged birds, they are to set free, don't. It only encourages them to keep catching them.

Wat Suan Dok, which roughly translates as "flower garden temple", is a Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand. It is a Royal Temple of the Third Class.

• This facility is outside the cluster of temples found within the old city wall on Suthep Road.
• Outside there is an impressive pagoda adjacent to dozens of small white worship shrines. Many of the temples inside the old city wall are similar but Wat Suan Dok is a stand-out.
• When the sun is shining they make a good photograph with the gold Chedi in the background.
• Pun Pun vegetarian restaurant is on the grounds, which is supposed to be an excellent restaurant.
