The unique tunnel temple of Thailand

Among the hundreds of Buddhist temples in Chiang Mai, the Wat Umong or “Tunnel temple” is unique because of its location in the forest and it is outside the city walls and its system of underground tunnels which is known for. The serene and peaceful atmosphere at the 13th century forest temple near Doi Suthep mountain provides a welcome change from the much visited sites in Chiang Mai. A number of tunnels dug out of a mound contains shrines with Buddha images, where devotees can pay their respect to the Buddha. #templeblessed#ancientlandmark#lanternshow#nightphotoguide#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer
