CLICK HERE or on the image to stream video

There are over 300 temples in the city of Chiang Mai and Wat Doi Suthep may be the most important and beautiful of them all. Sitting high on a mountain top overlooking the city. The temple was built there after one of the kings gave a rare albino elephant a holy object and told it to go find the spot where the temple to house it would be built. The elephant climbed the mountain, stopped at the top and died, thus the temple found its home. There are many large gongs and bells there as well and we took a trip up there in the rain at dawn to record them. Check out the Kaura blog to see that video at www.kauratravels.blogspot.com
Hope all of you are doing well, I miss you.
