Not to be missed, if you're interested in Thai history. Surely one of the prime sites to visit in all of Thailand, and certainly in Chiang Mai. About 20/30 minutes from Chiang Mai city. Find it on your own using a map, or take a taxi. Best done over a number of visits as there are many individual areas within the overall site. It's best to go to the recently opened museum (opened in 2016 I believe), first to get a good taste of what Wiang Kum Kam has to offer. We were taken round the museum by a young volunteer with acceptable English, and she was most helpful (so got a good tip!). The museum is extremely modern and uses the latest technology to get the story across, as well as having rooms of artifacts. Outside the museum, the guides and volunteers have little English, and there is not much information at the sites either. A shame, but there you are. If you look around after visiting the museum and gleaning information from the internet, you will be as prepared as you can be right now. I would advise going round the site on your own using a cycle or motorcycle. Don't miss out on Chedi Liam, a superb stupa built around 1287. An outstanding area, and thoroughly recommended.

Beautiful group of 6 very old temples - dating back to 1290. The guided tour by horse & carriage is well worth the B300 - takes just a bit over 1 hour to see all depending on much time walking at each temple you want to do.

Really nice historical sight, if you have a bike, you don't need to take horses, you just can drive through

Sprawling temple grounds with old ruins as well as a beautiful currently operating temple. There are many small shrines dotted about the grounds.
