Wat Mahawan

First Temple I've been to in Chiang Mai that requests 20Bht admission to go into the Assembly Hall, but not much to pay and the money goes to restoring and keeping the Temple buildings in good condition. Unusually, you can get a massage in the grounds of this place. Several Stupas, the main one is decorated with Lion statues, four on one side, two on the other. Beautiful detail on the embossed doors of the Assembly Hall.

Lovely temple near Thapae road. I always go there during my daily walk here in Chiang Mai.

We passed this temple and decided to go in on a whim and we're so glad we did! This is one of those smaller, unassuming temples that has a quiet serenity to it. There were no tourists inside, so we were able to wander around at a leisurely pace and really feel the peacefulness.

Note: Visited prior to COVID, so things may be slightly different.

Temple is small but beautiful.
I took thai massage ( 150 baht/ 1hour) and tok sen ( 250 baht/ 1 hour) here. Thai massage was awesome. Unfortunately, tok sen wasn't good for me. It's depend on masseurs/ massueses who give you good massage or not.

Stunning temple. It's free.

Massage there was good and cheap (150baht per hour) but not very clean - they do not change the towel/bedding after each massage!

I took Tok Sen. Tok Sen is not so strong and I enjoy just feeling northern Thai culture. However, the massage between Tok Sen is the strongest I’ve ever experienced. Maybe it depends on massagers. I really enjoyed the strong massage and Tok Sen!!

Cute temple between the night market and the Tha Pae gate. Nice to visit. Free to enter. There are some tourists here but it's not too busy
