The previous post in this series is here..
After going on the Ang Ka trail to the highest point in Thailand we came down that mountain and went up to another mountain within the park that overlooked Chiang Mai. Forty years ago the royal family commissioned two pagodas in memory of the previous king and queen with a beautiful park on top of this mountain as a tourist attraction.
The place is amazing. First you have to wait for a Hummer looking vehicle to take you to the top. Once up, there were escalators you could use to go up. We did use them where they worked. We walked around the pagodas and soaked up the views. Took some pictures. Then we had to wait in a station for a return vehicle. Joy managed to squeeze us in, given we were only two people and not part of a large group!
This was our last stop in the park. The next two hours was a ride back towards our hotel.. so we could rest.
The one pano shots I took from the top…
San dozed off while I watched the landscape change from mountain to traffic!
Here is a video highlights reel..
We finally made it back to the city center after a long day of travel and constant hiking..
