Wat Phutthabat Sutthawat, originally named Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phra Chom Klao Rachanusorn (Wat Phra Bat Pu Pa Daeng), is more commonly known among the locals as "Doi Pu Yak" (Doi Phra Bat Pu Pa Daeng). Renowned for its breathtaking scenery, this temple has been recognized as an “Unseen Thailand” destination. Within the temple complex, one can find the sacred footprint of the Buddha inscribed on a large stone, alongside attractions such as the Phasawan Cave, the Wonder Wind Hole, beautiful stone patterns, an ancient lime kiln, and the nearby ancient city of Wi Chet Nakhon. Wat Phutthabat Sutthawat consists of two levels. The lower level allows visitors to drive and park directly in front of the temple, while the upper level is situated atop a mountain. To reach this vantage point, tourists must drive about 3 kilometers up and then trek approximately 1 kilometer on foot. Today, this temple has become a prominent tourist attraction in Lampang Province, drawing many visitors eager to admire its stunning beauty. **Location:** Moo 7, Ban Thung Thong, Wi Chet Nakhon Subdistrict, Jaehom District, Lampang Province **How to Get There:** From Lampang city, take Highway No. 1035 toward Jaehom District.
