Beschrijving
Wat Phra That Doi Kham is an impressive temple on a hill on the edge of Doi Suthep-Pui National Park. The temple itself is very much worth a visit and has a 17-meter-high sitting Buddha. The temple is surrounded by forest and the views are beautiful. Because of the location within the Doi Suthep-Pui National Park it is also a great place for birding. More than 350 birds species have been recorded in the national park. Among the birds you can observe around the temple are Golden-fronted Leafbird, White-rumped Shama, White-crested Laughingthrush, Puff-throated Babbler, Black-crested Bulbul, Greater Racket-tailed Drongo, Ashy Woodswallow, Lineated Barbet, Green-billed Malkoha, Black-naped Monarch, Oriental Honey-buzzard and Black Baza.

From the temple you have a beautiful view of the wide surroundings and of the forest and the treetops.
