Chiang Mai Trip 1: Doi Pui & Doi Suthep

Last week we went to Chiang Mai for a 2 days 1 night trip

First destination: Doi Pui

it is a quite big area for you to visit those shop lots 

at here you can find a lot of handmade souvenir, bags, handbags, purse, etc

and also food~~ hmm, i mean some snack... 

For me i think i really spent alot at here.. a handbag for 150baht~~

finally i can use another bag for class other than USM bag already... haha... 

best advertiser for Universiti Sains Malaysia.. LOLzz

Next destination: Doi Suthep

It is actually my Malay friends say not interested to go as it is a temple. But end up she make up the trip for that as she heard that it is the trademark for Chiang Mai and here it is--->

the entrance ticket, but this 30baht is seems to be wasted as no one actually check our ticket. what we need is just the cable car ticket. Hmm 

Then take some photo only in there... 

and the trademark said is--->

forgive me of my bad camera technique.. ^^

Black Temple

Remember that last time during the city tour we have been make our visit to the famous white temple?

And then finally last week, after pay our visit to Doi Tung we go to another side of Chiang Rai, near our university to visit the Black Temple, another famous temple available at here. 

According to the story I heard from others, these two temple are made from 1 pair of  master and apprentice. But the amazing part is both is such a big contrast that one use black and another one use white.

Anyway, I am not sure why but in the black temple I feels it fierce of all those furnish in the temple. So I dare not to take too much photo. It seems like some kind of museum with all black inside and due to it is a rainy day. But at least I get to steal some photo from my friend.. hehe

I am not sure all those furnishing in the black temple are made from the real one.. >.<

And it is a combination of a few different building actually but due to the raining day we are not able to view everyone of it.

And this is the toilet~~~

The road is filled with this stone. I like this~~ 

Although I am sort of scare of the temple but one thing cant deny is it is really a big art made. I respect the design from deep down of my heart. Inside the temple there got a book for the visitors to write down their feeling too. So this end my Sunday trip on 17th July 2011.
