From the Chiang Mai World / Places

Wat Suan Dok

Just west of Chiang Mai's old city, Wat Suan Dok combines an open-sided ordination hall with a field of white chedis holding royal ashes.

Wat Suan Dok

Why go

The pale memorial chedis give this temple a striking sense of place, especially with Doi Suthep behind them. The broad ordination hall offers a second architectural focus, making the compound worth more than a brief glance from the road. Walk into the grounds to see both.

What to look for

  • White chedis associated with Chiang Mai's rulers.
  • The open-sided ordination hall.
  • Doi Suthep rising behind the chedi group.

Useful to know

  • Walk among the chedis before looking into the ordination hall.
  • Combine it with sites west of the old-city wall rather than crossing town for one short stop.
