Wat Pha Lat or Wat Sakithaka (Pha Lat)

Wat Pha Lat or Wat Sakithaka (Pha Lat), Tambon Suthep, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand
Also spelled Wat Pha Lad
วัดผาลาด หรือ วัดสกิทาคา (ผาลาด) ตำบลสุเทพ เมืองเชียงใหม่ จังหวัดเชียงใหม่ ประเทศไทย

Wat Pha Lat is not a typical temple in the sense that it is very informal, without a large wiharn and ubosot. This temple may best be characterized as a forest temple. The temple is located on the side of a mountain and borders a large waterfall. Structural elements of the temple are scattered among the trees of the mountainside as small Buddha shrines and images of various mythological creatures.

Wat Pha Lat, วัดผาลาด, is a temple located on Doi Suthep (Suthep Mountain) above Chiang Mai. "Doi" (ดอย) is the Thai word for "Mountain", so it is frequently seen in the Thai highlands. This is a forest temple with numerous shrines scattered on the mountainside.
