This place typifies why I love about the "out of city" temples. They incorporate nature as an integral part of the environment and you get a totally different and more peaceful experience experience. This is spread out over a large area and has an unusual feature with tunnels running under the Pagoda. Lovely sound of birds singing in the trees and Cockerell calling. On the path from the entrance there are "cartoon like" illustrations each with a message about life and living.

This is so big big temple with 35 places to go around but actually there are 5 places is private so you can not come in. No need to buy ticket but you just need to pay 20bth to go inside the tunnel. This is so amazing temple.

Very beautiful old temple area. When we went there was a modern art exhibition in the tunnel. They have a pond where you can feed fish as well (and a big python swimming in it). Quite exciting! :-) it's just a short walk to the animal sanctuary and even older temple ruins of you fancy.

Very peaceful and pretty place to visit. The Buddha's are amazing. Our guide was very helpful in e planning the meaning of the different positions of the Buddha's.

I visited this temple on a Sunday evening. It was not too crowded. The temple looks really old with a man made old cave and a stupa. Pros 1. Plenty of car parking space. 2. Interesting old style temple with cave like structure. The lighting elevates the experience. 3. Tickets were priced at 20 THB in 2023 4. It was not too far from Nimmann. 5. Few animals like dogs, squirrels and chickens roam freely in the temple ground. Cons 1. The temple could be reached by a narrow 2 lane road. 2. The temple ground might not be of general liking.

Wat Umong was very kool. The temple grounds were beautiful. We saw chickens, squirrels, bats, and two howling beagles. Inside the tunnels was neat. Went there with Trip Guru and our wonderful guide “Banana”. I would love to go back and explore the whole temple complex

As iconic as it’s photogenic .. Reminiscing back in the university years, I was pleasantly here for the first time and super-impressed by how magical this temple really was. And mercifully, it remained somewhat the same when my trouper and I returned here nearly 2 decades later. The incessant surge of serenity, as we’re stepping in, within the sacred tunnel airily past our bodies and left us feeling some kind of spiritual awakening. If you guys happen to be there, take your precious time and respect other valued privacy 👼🏼🙏🏻

This Temple is Dharma Practice Garden too. So people who visit can see Dharma Quotes Sign on the tree around the jungle. Umong mean tunnel, This 700th years temple is difference from another temple in thailand because there have tunnel around the Stupa. In the tunnel have many buddha image on the wallhold. The Architect has super natural imagine The Light Channel bring the sun light from the sky in to the Tunnel. The position of buddha in the wallhold is suitable, the light behind the buddha emphasize to the enlightment. Between I visit it raining when I look out from the tunnel to the yard it is the one of beautiful view of my life.

First time for me visit here last year 12 Feb 2020 this place is very silence I love this place and respect Buddha

Worth the trip out of Chiang Mai to visit this Temple Complex. It's a nice change from the city Temples. We came here on our scooter - an easy ride. There's quite a lot to see. The tunnels are particularly interesting. Wear good footwear - the ground can be quite slippery in places. We only had an hour to look around so weren't able to see it all. Give yourself a couple of hours.

A beautiful temple with a small cave or a large tunnel that you can meditate in. It also has a museum of relics and inspired art. I think you can also come here if you want to be a monk. This place is huge to walk around.

Beautiful Temple surrouding with tall trees. The temple itself is very modest and once stepped in you can sense the serenity throughout the temple ground. The interesting point of attraction is the short tunnel underneath pagoda.

Was introduced by friendly locals to visit this old temple which have much stories and teachings. It’s a beautiful, magical temple to go to with surprising little tunnels and a huge pagoda to admire, relax beside and the whole place feels surreal, like in a set of an Indiana Jones adventure minus the action. Exploring the temple makes us feel so calm, mesmerised and walked up the spiritual self in us. There are pigeons and fishes to feed where you can purchase feeds at just 10bath. There are so many inspirational & live quotes to discover and reflect. Zen place, highly recommended, must go!

Nice and good vibe, many parking lot. The place is quite quiet & few visitor during weekday (i visited on Fri and saw few group of Thais and Chinese). Worth to visit once in your life. Free of charge for Thais. And 20 THB for non Thais. Found 2 cute beagle dogs, very friendly and smart.

Beautiful temple hidden gem 💎! Is a bit far from the center but definitely a good time for nature connection more into nature birds sound and healthy walks! For those who meditate! Full of spots, me personally I did a quick meditation n the stupa Plato surrounded bye incredible trees!

A bit away outside the city so you need to take a Grab or scooter. A beautiful temple in a nice natural setting, but did not match my expectations, especially the caves, so giving it 4 stars. Still worth a visit though.

Wat Umong dates back to the 13th Century and consists of a range of old ruins, meditation tunnels and a large unpainted stupa. The temple complex also has a monastery so there are always monks walking around, often circling the stupa in prayer.

(Translated by Google) I am so glad to be able to visit here again. As for the area around Bo, we continue to expand. The feeding place for fish and bird food is very dirty and smelly. A sacred place But should take care of the area around the temple clean (Original) ฉันดีใจมากที่ได้มาเยือนที่นี่อีกครั้ง สำหรับบริเวณรอบโบยังคงต่อเติมไปเรื่อยๆ สถานที่ให้อาหารปลาและอาหารนก สกปรกมาก และมีกลิ่นเหม็น. เป็นสถานที่ศักดิ์สิทธ์ แต่ควรดูแลพื้นที่รอบๆวัดให้สะอาดค่ะ

Love this temple, lots of wisdom sign that remind your thoughts and how to quality spend life in single day. Peaceful and easy to go, close to city you can take grab car and go there, very convenience. We have been there on weekdays, not too much visitors. Mindfulness, silence and good for your soul.

Ancient and most unusual Buddhist temple, less frequented by non-piligrim visitors, yet very interesting and sometimes mysteriously looking...

Nice place to go. Meditation 🧘‍♀️

Nice place to visit if you're around the neighborhood.

(Translated by Google) Wat Umong - is another important temple in Chiang Mai. And is considered an ancient monument that is located in Chiang Mai for more than 700 years. Originally built in the Phaya Mang Rai period, after the Lanna people have renovated the chedi which is on top. And built a tunnel by laying bricks on the north side of the pagoda But now this plaster layer has almost completely shaken off. There is only a portion of the vaulted ceiling in the tunnel that appears frescoes. As for the outside, almost the entire area is no longer visible. Only the bricks left. And brick for tunnel structure only In 2003 there was a major restoration of the tunnel under the supervision of the Fine Arts Department. The tunnel structure has been strengthened. Therefore found more evidence Is the structure, each tunnel is made of bricks Separate to each channel In the tunnel there are 4 passageways that can be connected to each other. (Original) วัดอุโมงค์ - เป็นวัดที่สำคัญอีกแห่งของเชียงใหม่ และถือเป็นโบราณสถานที่อยู่คู่เมืองเชียงใหม่มากกว่า 700 ปี ลักษณะโครงสร้างของวัดเป็นแบบพุทธศาสนาลัทธิลังกาวงศ์ เดิมสร้างขึ้นในสมัยพญามังราย ต่อมาภายหลัง ชาวล้านนาได้ทำการซ่อมแซมบูรณะเจดีย์ซึ่งอยู่ด้านบน และสร้างอุโมงค์โดยการก่ออิฐถือปูนไว้ทางทิศเหนือของเจดีย์ แต่ปัจจุบันชั้นปูนฉาบนี้ได้หลุดกะเทาะเกือบหมดสิ้นแล้ว คงเหลือก็เพียงส่วนของเพดานโค้งภายในอุโมงค์ที่ปรากฏจิตรกรรมฝาผนังเท่านั้น ส่วนบริเวณด้านนอกเกือบทั้งหมดนั้นไม่ปรากฏชั้นของปูนฉาบแล้ว เหลือเพียงอิฐก่อผนัง และอิฐก่อโครงสร้างอุโมงค์เท่านั้น ในปี พ.ศ. 2546 ได้มีการบูรณะปฏิสังขรณ์อุโมงค์ครั้งใหญ่ภายใต้การกำกับของกรมศิลปากร มีการซ่อมแซมโครงสร้างของอุโมงค์ให้แข็งแรงขึ้น จึงพบหลักฐานเพิ่มเติม คือโครงสร้างแต่ละอุโมงค์ก่อด้วยอิฐถือปูน แยกไปแต่ละช่อง โดยในอุโมงค์มีทางเดิน 4 ช่องซึ่งเชื่อมต่อกันได้

(Translated by Google) The temple has a tunnel and in the tunnel there is a Buddha image. There is another pagoda on the tunnel, which is very unusual. There are foreign tourists as well. (Original) วัดที่มีอุโมงค์และในอุโมงค์มีพระพุทธรูป บนอุโมงค์ยังมีเจดีย์อีก แปลกตาดีครับ เป็นอีกวัดหนึ่งที่นักท่องเที่ยวชาวไทยในพื้นที่และต่างพื้นที่มักมากราบไหว้พระขอพรอย่างต่อเนื่อง มีนักท่องเที่ยวชาวต่างชาติด้วยครับ

The oldest temple in Chiang Mai, quite hidden and not crowded, solemn, beautiful.

I visit in the evening so I can't take a walk outside. But small Buddhas all over the interior came as wonders and the grandeur of the 600-year-old pagoda was also good.

(Translated by Google) It is excellent in all aspects of the past. (Original) เป็นที่บอกเล่าเรื่องราวในอดีตได้อย่างยอดเยี่ยมในทุกด้าน

(Translated by Google) The fish released at this temple is very wide and has 2 large ponds. (Original) ปล่อยปลาที่วัดนี้ครับกว้างมากมี2​ สระใหญ่

20 bahts for the entry and it’s definitely with the value. There are quite a few facilities to walk pass. There’s food giving hall, monks resting places and some small stalls. The building is very old but very nice to walk around. The very tall building is able to walk one round, maybe can make a wish? Heard there was river behind, but didn’t manage to go.

This place is free to visit and enjoy the tranquility as you walk around the area. Take pictures of the beautiful pagoda and enjoy the cool as you walk into the tunnels to visit the statues of Buddha. Do take time to take in the beauty of the place. There is no need to rush.

Love the place, such an amazing and historic temple. It was pretty crowded however which took away from the atmosphere a little. I loved the Buddhist quotes on the trees everywhere, great trip overall

A unique temple complex on the hillside to the west of Chiang Mai city, well worth a visit. It features a number of spotless tunnels and statues in the centre of the grounds, plus a number of interesting statues, exhibitions and a large stupa within the grounds. There are a number of paths to follow and a large lake with an island and bridges. A large number of turtles can be seen here.

The cave temple is nice and cool while weather is hot outside. I went on a Sunday and there were a number of devotees and local tourists. Although it's a meditation centre, it's a little too noisy for practice on weekends.

Temple hidden amongst a jungle. For those who like the 'jungle temple' experience, then I would also recommend Wat Phra Lat on the Monk Trail. Very serene experience and the additional of a pond is just a cherry on top.

A nice temple more hidden between the trees, multiple locations you can visit within (see boards with info). There is also a hall with art from Montien Boonma here.

A popular Wat with a museum, small catacombs, lot's of birds & a small lake + a Yoga facility.... About 1.5 hours to explore....

Really cool and different temple. Worth a look

Exotic one of monastery. Not too far from city.

700 years old temple....interesting place, meditation center

One of the most beautiful temples I’ve visited. The energy is super strong, very well reserved and the tunnels are really magical. Monks are around as they live there which makes it so special. A meditation centre is there too which is definitely on my list for the next visit. Definitely must see.

วัดนี้มีความน่าสนใจ ในความเก่าแก่ และการสร้างอุโมงค์ที่มีความลึกลับ น่าค้นหาและมาเยี่ยมชม

The Vipassana retreat that I did here was the best that I have ever done. I thought that the teacher was good. The structure of the day was good. The rooms were appropriate. The temple itself is really beautiful. It has ancient tunnels with altars and a large pond full of fish and turtles. The atmosphere is extremely tranquil. This place is as good as your ever going to find.

Love this Wat Umong. It’s very good meditation center for all participants, teaching in English and Thai . Very peaceful, specially after working hours. Highly recommend meditation center. Spend here 12 days after ugly break up. And find not only answers , but also open Buddhism for myself

Really cool temple outside of town with a mystical vibe. Would 10/10 recommend to go if you are in Chiang Mai :)

This is a temple in a garden setting with a bookstore with some hard to find books on Buddhism (in Thai). Meditation center there as well. Very busy. Good place to talk to monks and learn about Theravada Buddhism. There’s coffee shops nearby.

Ancient temple with a long history. I personally loved the serene feel this place has. You’re surrounded by nature with the sound of birds. There’s cool tunnels to explore.

I was a little less impressed after seeing it in releal instead of the photos here. It's still a unique temple with a tunnel structure I haven't seen anywhere else. A structure that offers you great photos inside the tunnels! Great for picture taking and free of charge. We visited on a weekday and it was slightly busy, i'm sure this a favorite among the group tours.

Nice temple to visit, you can walk around and see the tunnels. There’s a pigeon kingdom near the pond

A must if you come to Chiang Mai. This temple is over 700 years old. You can go in the caves and pray to the Buddha's, enjoy the natural scenery, or even feed the fish and birds.

A quiet and relaxing place to get lost in. The grounds are easy to walk, there is an area to feed pigeons and fish, very cool tunnels and shrines to explore. It's worth a visit.

One of the most special temples in Thailand. A must visit in Chiang Mai. It’s recommended to visit there during late afternoon when it’s not that hot and not many visitors. It closes at 20:00 so you have a plenty of time. It’s like a tunnel of time, taking you to 700 years ago ....

I came a little late at around 6.30pm in December so it is really dark and gives off a unique feeling. I have a good experience but if you plan to come when the sun down, bring torch light.

This temple is the location of a Thai soap serie. Quite place, nice place for pictures. Big stupa on the top.

Wonderful old temple in chiang mai, they have parking lot. Recommend to visit here in the afternoon, it's comfortable, take your time to enjoy the history here and visit the old tunnel and make a best wish for yourself.

Very beautiful and serene temple. The tunnels are simple but bizarre. We saw some bats in there so watch out. This temple has a starving Buddha statue which is a rare find. Monks are chanting in the background. Locals are burning incense and praying. Some foreigners are meditating in the quiet corners. Come in, walk around, be peaceful. It’s nice.

(Translated by Google) From Suan Dok Gate, the west gate of Chiang Mai city, head west on Suthep Road and turn left (south) on the alley Soi 4 ​​in the city. It is in a slightly confusing place. Since you can put a motorcycle in the back of the entrance rotary, it is closer to the cave if you go to the back and stop, it feels good to walk in the woods, there are temples, meditation classes and museums in the precincts .. The mossy stone statue in the depths of the forest, the stone steps, the caves, and the quiet environment isolated from the hustle and bustle of the city make you feel very peaceful. It is convenient to take a plastic bag with you to take off your shoes and carry it around, the altar in the cave is worshiped by local worshipers, and the sunbeams from the outside create a mysterious atmosphere. The pagoda has a characteristic shape like a bell on top in Sukhothai style. It seems that the first King Menrai of Chiang Mai invited monks from Sri Lanka and donated 11 bamboo forests to build them in the Sri Lankan style. By digging a tunnel with two entrances, the temple became known as the "Wat Umong" tunnel temple and seems to be the training center of the adjacent temple. This is my favorite spot in Chiang Mai. (Original) チェンマイ市街の西門スアンドーク門からSuthep通りを西に進み、街中の路地Soi4を左折(南)へ進んだ先の少し分かりづらい場所に在ります。入口ローターリーの奥へバイクは入れるので、奥まで行って停めた方が洞窟に近いです、歩いて森の中を行くのも気分が良いです、境内には寺院、瞑想教室や資料館も在ります。森の奥に苔むした石像に石段、そして洞窟、街の喧騒から隔絶された静かな環境でとても和やかな気持ちになれます。靴を脱いで入れて持ち歩くのにビニール袋を持って行くのが便利です、洞窟内の祭壇には地元の参拝客が参拝しています、外からの木漏れ日が神秘的な雰囲気です。仏塔はスコータイ様式で上部にベルを乗せたような特徴的な形をしています。初代チェンマイ王メンラーイ王がスリランカから僧侶を招き１１か所の竹林を寄進してスリランカ様式で建立されたのが始まりの様です、その後、アナータムミカラート王が僧侶達が瞑想修行できる場として4つの入り口を持つトンネルを掘らせ、寺院は「ワット・ウモーン」トンネルの寺と呼ばれるようになり、隣接する寺院の修行センターになっている様です。チェンマイの中でもとても好きなスポットです。

Beautiful and peaceful temple. The tunnel is also very nice and interesting
