Timeless Charm of Lanna: Wat Phan Tao

#thailandtrip Step into a slice of Lanna history at Wat Phan Tao, one of Chiang Mai’s rare all-teakwood temples. Once a royal throne hall, this humble yet majestic structure reflects the grace of Northern Thai architecture and spiritual calm. ✨ Things to do: • Admire the handcrafted teakwood hall • Take photos with the golden standing Buddha and ornate white gate • Visit the Buddhist Manuscript Library nearby 💡 Tips: • Visit in the early morning for fewer crowds and softer light • Wear modest clothing (covered shoulders and knees) to enter temple areas 📍 Location: Phra Pok Klao Road, Si Phum Subdistrict, Mueang Chiang Mai It’s right next to Wat Chedi Luang, easy to combine in one visit! #chiangmai #temple #buddhisttemple
