Beautiful temple in the jungle. For some parts still taken over by nature, which gives it its character. Drop by on your way to Doi Suthep, either by foot or by car.
Unless you are completely out of shape, don't take this cable car up. There's zero view inside what is essentially a closed elevator. The climb up isn't that bad at all.
If you are a flower lover... You will love this place! Ps. Walk instead of taking a bus tour so you will get to see a lot more stuffs :)
MUST VISIT: Never leave Chiang Mai without visiting this beautiful temple. Go here late in the afternoon when there's less visitors.
It's great! It's off the 'regular' Doi Inthanon path (10km each way) but worth it! It's a short 600m hike. Clean restrooms can be found right before the waterfall (not the ones in the parking area).
Amazing view! Definitely worth visiting. The water is so strong that you’d get yourself, camera and phone wet trying to take a good picture of it from afar. Highly recommended!

1,5 km trail is described as easy - but it's at least medium! Wear good shoes (NOT flipflops!) and be prepared to climb over fallen trees/walk along a sometimes very narrow trail and/or steep climbs.
The 5th level is stunning around 1 p.m. Don't forget to bring proper footwear and water. The trail to the waterfall is quite long and steep.
