The character of the walk
East of the moat, temple stops sit beside trading streets. The gate provides an open starting space before pavements narrow and traffic changes. The market is a useful endpoint, but individual stalls are not guaranteed to be open. The walk needs shaded breaks and marked road crossings
Landmarks along the way
Tha Phae Gate: restored brick gates on the eastern side of the old town; Wat Mahawan: a temple near the eastern entrance to the old town
Wat Buppharam, Chiang Mai: a temple complex on Tha Phae Road; Warorot Market: a market district beside the Ping River
