Natural and historical highlights include the Golden Triangle border, the tea plantations of Singha Park, and the Tham Luang cave system.
Wat Rong Suea Ten
Known for its sapphire-blue interior and gold carvings, this contemporary temple was completed in 2016. The main hall features a massive white Buddha statue surrounded by modern Buddhist murals designed by a protégé of the White Temple’s artist.
Wat Huai Pla Kang
This temple complex features a 90-meter-tall statue of Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy, and a nine-story pagoda. Visitors can take an elevator inside the statue to a viewpoint on the 25th floor overlooking the surrounding hills.
Chiang Rai Clock Tower
Designed by artist Chalermchai Kositpipat, this golden monument functions as a traffic circle in the city center. It features a synchronized light and sound show every evening at 7:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 9:00 PM.
Wat Phra Kaew
This 14th-century royal temple is the original discovery site of the Emerald Buddha. The grounds include a museum housing Lanna-style artifacts and a jade replica of the famous Buddha image commissioned for the temple's 1991 anniversary.

Also known as the Black House, this complex of 40 structures was created by artist Thawan Duchanee. The buildings house a collection of animal remains, skins, and furniture crafted from bones, reflecting a dark interpretation of Buddhist philosophy.
