Very busy, lots going on with people worshipping in various ways and lots of visitors. Getting past all the stalls selling things and climbing stairs was quite an adventure but we both really enjoyed it as well as the ride up.

It was a 300 steps climb up the temple, alternatively one can take the travellator for THB 50. Love the street stalls at the bottom of the temple. Make sure one tries the sweet corn at the stall. Is delicious! And plenty of other local foods.

The Songkla ride from the old city up the hill to this temple is pretty harrowing and also pretty bad on the bank. Only worth it if there is a big group of you. Don't get suckered into taking the elevator its not that much of a climb and really worth it. There's a cool little market all along the...More

One of the nicest temples in Thailand and a very interesting site. In hot and humid days avoid walking up, take the monorail up (150 bhat) and then at the end of the visit walk down the stairs. Very nice and impressive golden stupa, vista point. You can also sit and relax.

From the zoo, it should cost about a total of 100 baht per person to get up and down (the price is maybe 60 and then 40?) by songteaw, which is an affordable way to get there. The view is extraordinary if the weather cooperates! There is a cable car for those unable to get up the stairs, or if...More

How could anyone give a bad review of a wat? Well, when there is both a convenience store and a monorail involved, it kind of takes away the magical feel that you are walking into history. I am not saying it isn't beautiful, but I probably would have enjoyed it more if there were less hawkers, it was earlier in...More

We saw a lot of temples in Thailand, and this one was one of our favorites! The gold dome is gorgeous and the grounds are beautiful. There is also a great look-out point! It was not very expensive, so we definitely recommend checking it out!

worth the trip. Don't spend the money on the tram unless you have mobility issues. The walk up the stairs isn't that big a deal and you will want to take a close look at the dragon railings going up. Foreigners have to pay an entrance fee of about 45 bhat. The tram is an additonal 150 bhat. The view...More

Is a very nice temple on the mountain near Chiang Mai very easy to go by taxi or car. Beautiful view and a lot of Budda images in a clean a nice place. Too many tourists on top and too many too many souvenir sellers. You must go!
