Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: The Golden Mount offers panoramic city views from its 80-meter tall man-made hill topped with a gleaming golden chedi. The site hosts an annual temple fair every November where thousands climb the 300 steps holding lotus flowers and incense for a blessing.
Kohokohdat: Ascending the steep staircase, visitors reach an open terrace encircling the sparkling Golden Chedi, where sunlight catches thousands of gold leaves, creating a glowing halo. At the temple’s base, you can find skull relics from the old city moat, adding a striking historical contrast to the serene summit experience.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- Wear comfortable shoes for the 300-step climb to the top.
- Visit during weekdays to avoid weekend crowds and long queues.
- Bring a wide-angle lens for capturing the expansive city views.
- Pause at the base to check out the skull relics for an eerie historical contrast.

Oletko kuullut ilmaisista kävelykierroksista?
Matkustettuani yli 30 maassa, toivoisin, että joku olisi kertonut minulle tästä alusta alkaen, sillä se muutti täysin tapani kokea uudet kaupungit.
Ilmaiset kävelykierrokset. Kyllä, oikeasti ilmaiset. Ei luottokorttia. Ei piilokuluja.
Paikallinen opas, 2-3 tuntia
Tärkeimmät nähtävyydet, piilotetut helmet, paikalliset tarinat
100 % tippi-pohjainen
Oppaat ansaitsevat vain tippien kautta, joten he antavat parastaan
Tipaat sen mukaan, mikä tuntuu oikealta
Lopuksi tipaat sen, minkä koet oikeaksi
Olen tehnyt näitä monissa kaupungeissa ja ne ovat olleet lähes jokaisen matkani kohokohta. Jos vierailet kohteessa Bangkok, Thailand, tee tämä ensimmäisenä päivänä. Kiität minua myöhemmin.
