Wat Doi Suthep & Meo (Hmong) Hilltribe

<p>A short, relaxing drive takes you up the slopes of Doi Suthep Peak to visit a Meo (Hmong) hilltribe to observe their simple way of life. The Meo hilltribe originated in South China and usually live on mountain peaks or plateaus above 3000 feet. Due to its proximity to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep which is visited by many tourists, this particular village is a little more commercial than the traditional hilltribe villages.</p>

<p>This is followed by a visit to the most sacred temple in the north, Wat Phra Thad Doi Suthep, containing a holy relic of Lord Buddha. On a clear day the panoramic views of the city from the temple ground are truly spectacular!</p>
