Wat Umong, also known as Wat Umong Suan Phutthatham, is a unique and tranquil temple nestled in the forested foothills of Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Established in the late 13th century by King Mangrai, this temple is renowned for its serene natural setting and ancient meditation tunnels, which provide a peaceful retreat for monks and visitors alike.
The temple complex is spread over a lush, wooded area, offering a stark contrast to the bustling city life. The ancient tunnels, or "umong" in Thai, are adorned with old murals and are a fascinating feature, believed to have been used for meditation and teaching by monks. The tranquil grounds include a large, picturesque lake where visitors can feed fish and turtles, adding to the serene atmosphere.
Wat Umong also features a large chedi (stupa), an open-air museum with ancient relics and artifacts, and a replica of the Ashoka Pillar from India. The temple's forest setting is dotted with thought-provoking Buddhist proverbs and sayings on signs hanging from trees, encouraging contemplation and mindfulness.
Wat Umong is a place of quiet reflection and spiritual retreat, inviting visitors to explore its historical, cultural, and natural beauty while experiencing the peaceful essence of Buddhist monastic life.
