Wat Umong
Wat Umong pairs brick meditation tunnels with wooded temple grounds near Doi Suthep's foothills. It offers a more spacious setting than the old-city temples.

The tunnels beneath the chedi change the rhythm of a temple visit: look at the images in their passages, then step back into the trees around the grounds. It is a useful contrast to the open courtyards and tall chedis of central Chiang Mai.
What to look for
Brick passages beneath the chedi with Buddhist images.
Wooded paths around the temple grounds.
A small lake reached through the grounds.
Useful to know
Allow time for both the tunnels and the outdoor paths.
Use the full temple name when navigating; another Chiang Mai temple also uses Wat Umong.
