Queen Chama Thevi is remembered in the Temple of her name, which is said to be the resting place of her ashes. Near the town's main morning market in the south-west of the city is a statue of the queen at which offerings are still made today by citizens.

Lamphun is host to one of northern Thailand's most important temples, Wat Phra That Haripunchai featured on the reverse of the 1 Satang Coin. The Phra that in the title indicates the presence of a Buddha Relic, in this case, one of his hairs, which was interred in the chedi in 897, which is probably the founding date of the wat.

The town is surrounded by lush countryside punctuated by rice fields and orchards of the popular fruit longan, which is celebrated in a festival every August.

Continue to the old city of Lampang. Here you have a chance to visit one of the oldetst tempels of the north.

Lampang city is in the valley of the Wang River. The river, a major tributary of the Chao Phraya River, flows through the city. Lampang was a major city in the Lanna kingdom.  It is here that tourists can still find horse-drawn carriages in regular use for transportation. One account attributes the horse-drawn carriage to the Portuguese, via Macau , although a more likely origin is colonial Burma. Lampang was an important center of the timber industry in the early-20th century and saw an influx of migrants from British-controlled Burma. The horse-drawn carriage is one of the most memorable symbols of Lampang, as reflected in many traditional products.

Tourists typically stop by for lunch and visit the more famous attractions such as Wat Phra That Lampang Luang and the Elephant Conservation Center.  Less well-known tourist attractions in Lampang are thus mostly visited by locals. Among these are the Wang Kaeo Waterfall and the Chae Son National Park, a compact park that combines a natural hot spring with large waterfalls.

 Many temples in downtown Lampang were built in the Burmese -tyle, originally endowed by the logging tycoons of the late-19th century. Wat Si Bun Ruang, Wat Si Chum, and Wat Pa Fang are among the extant examples. Nine of the 31 remaining Burmese-style temples in Thailand are in Lampang. Traditional Lanna architecture can be found at Wat Phra That Lampang Luang, on the site of ancient Lampang city. It is famous for its murals from the 19th century. The city seal features a white rooster in the temple's gate. Wat Phra Kaeo Don Tao on the west bank of the Wang River is said to have housed the Emerald Buddha between 1436 and 1468. Wat Phra That Chedi Sao (The Temple of Twenty Chedis) is famous for its array of twenty pagodas.

The Si Satchanalai Historical Park is in Sukhothai province in northern Thailand. The park covers the ruins of Si Satchanalai and Chaliang. Si Satchanalai, which literally means "City of good people", was founded in 1250 as the second center of the Sukhothai Kingdom and as a residence of the crown prince in the 13th and 14th centuries.

The city was rectangular in shape. In the 16th century, a 5-meter high wall with an upstream moat was built to fend off the growing Burmese attacks. The location of the town was facilitated by two neighboring dominant hills. The park is maintained by the Fine Arts Department of Thailand with help from UNESCO, which has declared it a World Heritage Site. Si Satchanalai Historical Park attracts thousands of visitors each year, who marvel at the ancient Buddha figures, palace buildings and ruined temples. The park is easily toured by bicycle or even on foot.

Here we will visit Wat Phra Si Ratana Mahathat, the biggest and most historical temple and build in the 12th century when it was part of the old Khmer Empire. The structure original design is in the same style as Bayon in the old city of Angkor in Cambodia.

Continue to visit Wat Chedi Chet Thaeo (means the temple of seven rows of a stupa. The temple is one of the most important historic sites inside the town wall of Si Satchanalai. The temple is located in front of Wat Chang Lom and is considered unique among the temples in Sukothai kingdom, because it consists of 32 stupas of different sizes in different styles. The gigantic size of the temple in the town center indicates that this temple was built for the royal family.

And next, we will visit Wat Chang Lom which was built in 1286 by the order of Ramkhamhaeng after the discovery of a Buddha relic on the site. The main structure of the temple is a two-tiered square base round the Sri Lanka-style stupa. The name of the temple comes from the statues of 39 standing elephants around the first tier of the stupa base.

Finally, we will drive to Sukhothai where you will check into your hotel. If time permits we can visit the main highlights such as Wat Si Sawai, Wat Saphan Hin, Phra Achana, Wat Si Chum.

Prior to the 13th century, Tai kingdoms had existed in the northern highlands including the Ngoenyang Kingdom of the Tai Yuan people (centered on  Chiang Saen and the predecessor of the Lanna). Sukhothai had been a trade center and part of Lavo (present-day Lopburi), which was under the domination of the Khmer Empire. The migration of Tai people into the upper Chao Phraya valley was somewhat gradual.

Modern historians stated that the secession of Sukhothai (also spelled Sukhodaya) from the Khmer empire began as early as 1180 during the reign of Pho Khun who was the ruler of Sukhothai and the peripheral city of Si Stachanalai. Sukhothai had enjoyed a substantial autonomy until it was reconquered around 1180 by the Mon of Lavo.

Two friends, Pho Khun Bangklanghao and Pho Khun Pha Muang revolted against the Khmer Empire governor of Sukhothai. At the end of his reign in 1257, the Sukhothai kingdom covered the entire upper valley of the Chao Phraya River.

Traditional Thai historians considered the foundation of the Sukhothai Kingdom as the beginning of their nation because little was known about the kingdoms prior to Sukhothai. Modern historical studies demonstrate that Thai history began before Sukhothai. Yet the foundation of Sukhothai is still a celebrated event.
