In the early morning, meet your guide at your hotel to drive to Wat Pha Lat for a meaningful almsgiving ceremony.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

The alms-giving ceremony holds great significance in the Buddhisttradition, involving the offering of food, often rice or essentials, bylaypeople to monks. This practice supports monks who have embracedvows of poverty, relying on the generosity of others for sustenance.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Occurring in theearly morning, the ceremony unfolds as monks, adorned in distinctive robes, walk in procession through the community. People come together to present food and necessities, creating a deeply spiritual and humbling experience for both givers and monks. The ceremony underscores the principles of generosity, gratitude, and the interdependence between the monastic community and lay supporters.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Next, explore Wat Pha Lat, also known as Wat Sakithaka, a serene andless-explored Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai. Surrounded by lush greenery, the temple offers tranquil surroundings and stunning views of the landscape. Visitors can meander through the temple grounds, traverse jungle paths, and appreciate the natural beauty, including a waterfall and intricate statues.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Afterwards, enjoy breakfast at a local restaurant and continue the journey to Wat Doi Suthep.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Nestled a top Doi Suthep, a mountain that overlooks Chiang Mai, Wat Doi Suthep stands as a revered Buddhist temple and one of the most significant and picturesquein northern Thailand. Renowned for its remarkable architecture, intricate details, and a golden chedi (stupa) that enshrines relics of the Buddha, the temple offers a captivating spiritual experience.
