La vieille ville, ceinte d'un fossé carré et des vestiges de murs de brique, abrite des dizaines de temples, dont l'élégant Wat Phra Singh et le grand chedi en ruine du Wat Chedi Luang. Au-dessus de la ville, le Wat Phra That Doi Suthep couronne une montagne, atteint par un escalier bordé de serpents, avec des vues sur la vallée.
