Not to be missed temple in the centre of town.

Wat Saen Fang is possibly the best of those temples not in Chiang Mai's 'A list' - which are now mostly pay-to-go anyway.

Situated on the corner of Thapae Road and Chang Moi Tud Mai Road, halfway between Thapae Gate and the River Ping, it occupies a good area, and contains many buildings of interest.

There are entrances from no less than three different roads, and plenty of room for parking. There are a number of buildings within the grounds, plus gardens, statues, ornaments, and many other things of interest.

The Thapae Road entrance has Nagas guarding it, and a magnificent long corridor to the main courtyard. Many interesting and amusing gardens.

So central that you can't miss it, and shouldn't. Highly recommended.

Nice old temple where you very rarely see any tourists. It's very quiet here. It makes a good shortcut from the Chiang Moi road to the Tha Pae road avoiding the traffic. It' has lots of atmosphere.

Nice quiet temple not overrun by tourists. Its a nice place to take a short break while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere inside. They even have a cooler with free drinking water inside.

An ancient temple hidden away and fairly difficult to access

My place. Beautiful pagoda hidden near the hectic area of local market yet serene. You almost get this beyond time feeling on a good lighting day... Photoshoot here is not a bad idea at all.
