#flowerblossom #100waysoftravel During my visit to the Grand Pagoda, the surrounding gardens, meticulously cultivated with a variety of vibrant flowers, captured my attention as much as the historical structure itself. The floral arrangements were designed to complement the architectural elegance and spiritual serenity of the pagoda, creating a harmonious blend of natural and man-made beauty. The gardens featured an array of blooms like roses, hydrangeas, and peonies, artfully arranged to guide visitors through themes and emotions. Notably, the lotus flowers in the reflective pools added a layer of peace and spiritual symbolism, perfectly embodying purity and beauty in their serene settings. Seasonal changes transformed the garden's palette: spring brought tulips and cherry blossoms in bright yellows and pinks, while summer displayed bold sunflowers and lush lilies. Autumn introduced a warm atmosphere with the rich oranges and reds of chrysanthemums and marigolds. The thoughtful layout of the gardens enhanced views of the pagoda itself, framing the ancient structure with swathes of color and texture that shifted with the seasons. This careful consideration of sightlines and perspectives allowed the floral displays not only to be admired up close but also to complement distant views of the pagoda, creating a visually cohesive experience. Visiting the Grand Pagoda's gardens was more than a visual treat; it was an immersion in the art of garden design and its ability to evoke emotions and convey deeper cultural and spiritual meanings. Each plant and flowerbed played a role in enhancing the historical and cultural context of the site, offering a tranquil yet vibrant backdrop that enriched the overall visitor experience. #GrandPagoda #FloralBeauty #GardenDesign #SpiritualSpaces #SeasonalGardens #BotanicalArt #TranquilRetreat #CulturalLandscapes

Built by the Royal Thai Air Force and the Thai people to offer merit to His Majesty King Rama IX and Her Majesty the Queen on the occasion of their 5th cycle birthdays.

Phra Maha That Naphamethinidon and Phra Maha That Naphaphonphumisiri are located at kilometer marker 41.5 on the left side. They were built by the Royal Thai Air Force in collaboration with the Thai people. Phra Maha That Naphamethinidon was constructed to honor King Bhumibol Adulyadej on the occasion of his 5th cycle birthday anniversary in 1987, and Phra Maha That Naphaphonphumisiri was built to honor Queen Sirikit on the occasion of her 5th cycle birthday anniversary in 1992. Both of these stupas have a similar shape, with a 12-sided base and two levels of glass balconies surrounding them. The top spire houses relics of the Buddha and worship statues.

Inside, it was comfortable to walk around, and the flowers were very beautiful.

Location: Wat Phra That Doi Inthanon Noppamethanedon & Pagoda Nopphonphusiri: The Royal Pagodas of Mount Inthanon Summit Phra Maha That Noppamethanedon and Phra Maha That Nopphonphusiri Highlights: There are two pagodas. The brown pagoda was built in 1987 to honor King Bhumibol Adulyadej on his 60th birthday. The purple pagoda was built in 1992 to celebrate Queen Sirikit's 60th birthday. As you walk up, you can see the beautiful garden from afar. There is an escalator to the pagodas. Inside, there are Buddha statues and various sculptures. This place is about 2,100 meters above sea level, so even on a good weather day, the wind can still blow through the pagoda area. If you wear short clothes, the temple provides clothes for borrowing, but it is quite cold, so I borrowed some to wear. Today the weather is very nice, making the garden look even more beautiful. You can take a free shuttle from the parking lot to the site. 📍Address: HF3J+343, 1009, Ban Luang, Chom Thong District, Chiang Mai 50280

If you're looking for a place to visit at the end of the rainy season to relax, rejuvenate, and breathe in fresh air, I highly recommend 'Pa Pong Piang Rice Terraces.' Located in Mae Chaem District, Chiang Mai Province. The rice terraces are layered step by step, with a backdrop of large mountains contrasting against the blue sky. In the early morning, the cool air and mist covering the mountain peaks create an indescribable beauty. To get here, take the same route as to Doi Inthanon. Once you reach the second checkpoint, turn left to enter Mae Chaem District. Along the way, you'll experience a natural route surrounded by trees of various sizes. Drive straight and turn right at the Mae Pan Waterfall junction. Continue driving for a bit, and you'll see signs guiding you to Pa Pong Piang. Some parts of the road are quite steep and narrow, so drive carefully. Pa Pong Piang offers numerous accommodations, mostly homestays.

#VisitChiangMai 🌧️ The rainy season is a time when nature is lush and green, and it is also the season when farmers grow rice in many areas. 🌾🌾 Today, nature lovers like us will take you to see beautiful rice terraces at #BanPaPongPiang, located in Mae Chaem District, Chiang Mai Province. 🍀 In addition to seeing the vast green rice fields, the surrounding area is also a view of high mountains that are interspersed with mist that creates a cool, refreshing atmosphere that you can breathe deeply into your lungs.

You can use the same route to visit Doi Inthanon. When you reach the second checkpoint, around kilometer 37, turn left towards Mae Chaem District. The route to Ban Pa Pong Piang is quite narrow, has steep slopes, and many dangerous points. Therefore, if you are not a good driver, you should not drive yourself. You should prepare both the car you will take and the driver who is skilled at driving up the mountain. 🚗 #DaddyMomTakesYouOnATravel #DaddyMomInvitesYouOnATravel #LetsTravel #ChiangMaiTravel #BanPaPongPiang #RiceTerraces #NaturalAttractions

The Kew Mae Pan Nature Trail is 3.2 kilometers long, but it's not too exhausting because there are stairs and rest stops along the way to keep you from getting too tired. The natural scenery along the path is also very beautiful, making the hike worthwhile. The sea of mist at the top is incredibly romantic and refreshing. The weather up here is cool and fresh, not hot at all. If you're hesitating to come, don't! I recommend bringing drinking water and some inhalers if you're new to hiking.

♥️Wat Pa Daet♥️ Wat Pa Daet, a famous palace in Chiang Mai, is another place that you must come to worship and ask for blessings from the Lord Ganesha. Wat Pa Daet is a Mahanikaya temple with Khru Ba Kamtham as the abbot. In the past, it was called Wat Mai Mueang Mae Chaem. Many artists, celebrities, and famous people have come to worship and perform rituals to worship the Lord Ganesha, asking for blessings of fortune and success, and their wishes should be granted. Therefore, many people have come to worship, pay respect, and pay homage for good fortune. Therefore, it is another tourist attraction for those who believe in superstition. We also come to worship, but we don't really believe in superstitions. We just ask for good luck in every aspect. There is also a church to worship and a wooden building. The temple has a shady atmosphere. There is a pavilion and seats for tourists. There is a spacious parking lot next to the temple. Before leaving, we can rent souvenirs. The most popular item that is almost out of stock is beeswax. ♥️Recommend coming early in the morning when there are not many people and the weather is not too hot.♥️ 📍Location: Wat Pa Daet, Chiang Mai #VisitChiangMai #MustSeeForSuperstitions
