Doi Suthep Temple and Sticky Waterfall One Day Tour From Chiang Mai
Overview
Visit Doi Suthep Temple and Sticky Waterfall (Bua Tong Waterfall) in a one day tour. Doi Suthep Temple is located on top of the mountain and overlooking Chiang Mai city from above. Doi Suthep Temple (Wat Phra That Doi Suthep), more often known as Doi Suthep, is a Buddhist temple on Doi Suthep mountain. It’s one of the most sacred sites in Thailand, receiving hundreds of thousands of visitors and pilgrims every year. Bua Tong Waterfall near Chiang Mai is a small and beautiful, multi-tiered waterfall made of limestone and mineral deposits. It has been nicknamed the Sticky Waterfall because the limestone creates enough friction to stop slipping, so making it very easy to climb up the waterfall (with the help of ropes). The limestone is slightly rough but it isn’t painful to step on and forms an interesting bubbly pattern. There are 5 different levels to experience and steps on the side of the waterfall leading all the way to the bottom. Most people walk to the bottom and then climb up the waterfall to the top. On a hot and humid day, the water is cool and refreshing.
- Visit the sacred Wat Phra That Doi Suthep and enjoy seeing panoramic view of Chiang Mai.

- Be assisted by friendly local guides with excellent know-how and vast climbing experiences.
