1. Wat Phra That Doi Khum
'Wat Phra That Doi Kham'
This temple is situated in Tambon Mae Hia, Amphoe Mueang. It is a
beautiful temple situated on a lush mountainside near Chiang Mai Town.
'Wat Phra That' refers to the fact that this temple houses relics of the
Buddha,
and 'Doi Kham' means 'Golden Mountain’. The sacred temple was built
more than 1300 years ago,

2. in 687 A.D. It had been abandoned, but in 1966 villagers discovered a
hidden chamber containing many ancient Buddha images of various sizes,
and this find prompted revitalization.
There is an interesting folktale about Lord Buddha visiting this temple and
meeting a rakshasa (demon) family who tried to eat him. Lord Buddha
conquered them by sending them his kindness, which they could not
stand. The rakshasa family eventually converted, revering our Lord
Buddha, and also gave up consuming human flesh.
