Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao Rachanusorn

White and golden pagodas stand on mountain peaks, connected by staircases that weave through the rocky terrain at different elevations.

The temple construction took two years with 46 workers transporting materials through mountain paths under the guidance of a Lampang monk in 2004.

The temple honors King Rama IV through its architectural elements, incorporating traditional Thai Buddhist design with mountaintop placement of religious structures.

Visitors can park at the base camp and choose between a thirty-minute hike or pickup truck transportation to access the temple grounds from 8 AM to 4:30 PM.

The temple features 540 steps leading to floating pagodas positioned across multiple mountain peaks, with bells that ring in mountain breezes.
