Day 10 Part 1 – Goodbye Chiang Mai

tl;dr One last sight to see – a temple with (supposedely) amazing views, a last minute massage, and a flight to Phuket – 3 activities
Activity 1 – Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep:

I woke up early to head up a mountain to a ‘must-see’ temple in Chiang Mai: Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, or Wat Doi Suthep for short. I took an Uber there and back. It is quite the Wat: covered in gold, on top of a mountain, and dates to the 14th century. 


A lot of stairs on the way up to Wat Doi Suthep

Remember when I said that this Wat has great views? Well…see for yourself:


…apparently, I went on the wrong day.
Activity 2 – Massage:

I had barely enough time for a massage, but barely enough is enough. So, I got another inexpensive Thai massage.
Activity 3 – Flight to Phuket:

My flight was at ~1pm, but because of the massage I did not have a chance to eat. So, i ate some food at the airport, hopped on the plane, and went to Phuket.
