Wat Phra That Mae Yen (White Buddha) Pai

A hilltop temple with a large white Buddha statue overlooking the Pai valley, reached by 353 steps. The panoramic 360-degree view from the top covers the entire valley, the town below, and the surrounding mountain ridges - the most comprehensive viewpoint accessible on foot in the Pai area.

🏛️

Pai Memorial Bridge

A wooden bridge built by Japanese forces during World War II to cross the Pai River, later becoming one of the most photographed sites in northern Thailand. The bridge's weathered wood, the Pai River below, and the backdrop of misty mountains create an image that has become synonymous with the Pai experience.

🏛️
