Tham Muang On

One of the best caves ever for exploring. Great staircases make for safe walking. Several places inside the cave for meditation and reflection. It is an enjoyable walk to the cave. There is also a trail to the Chedi at the top. There are also many monkeys around on the outside of the mountain.

The caves are very large and beautiful. Definitely worth the visit. I was surprised at how vast they were. The climb to the caves isnt bad at all. However, if you want to go all the way to the top (past the caves) to see the overlook, expect a strenuous hike. But, totally worth the views.

One of our favorite experiences in Chiang Mai! Breathtaking. Not too many stairs, but a few places to crawl through in the cave

Something different to do in Chiang Mai. Entry is 20baht per person. Parking 10 baht, toilet 5 baht. Cool cave in the side of a mountain that has some significance in Buddhist culture and history. Many sculptures, small shrines and statues can be found throughout the caves. For a non-thai person, it might be difficult to follow along as there are some signs in thai only without an english translation.

Also, its quite a steep ascent up some flights of stairs on the side of mountain, then once you are through the cave entrance, theres quite a few steep set of stairs you need to descend, with some stalactites hanging so low that you need to crawl down the stairs.

It's beautiful place.
You'd better hire a scooter and get here by yourself.
It's affordable and convenient.
There are staff who offer light for 20 baths but you wouldn't need it as the inside is lighted.

Beautiful cave, suprisingly huge. Parking for scooter - 10 bath, toilets. 5 min walk from parking place. There is also monkey feeding point on the way up. Tickets for entrance - 20 bath a person. Very narrow entrance, not for everybody. Totally recommended.

Great experience to climb deep into the cave and visit the temple deep below.

At the entrance you’ll be equipped with flashlights as there are some dark spots in the cave and a lot of steep steps to climb

It’s worth checking out 🙏

An unplanned curiosity after visiting hot springs becomes a surprise experience for the day, a little exercise, adventure cool relief and worth the effort.

by far the best cave ive ever seen. completely mesmerising, defo make time to go here, if you walk a bit further theres a really nice viewpoint as well thats beautiful.

The width of the cave was 20 times as large as I have imagined and it was huge!
I’ve never seen the cave like that in Thailand. It’s maybe even bigger than “Tham Khao Luang”.
Entering fee is only 20THB so it’s really worth visiting.
There is hot springs nearby about 15 minutes drive, and nice fancy cafe named Skugga Farm as well, so you can enjoy traveling around in this region for whole day.

A fascinating and surprisingly large cave structure + mountain stair trek to explore with just the right amount of danger to feel exciting but not unsafe. The caverns are huge and the staircases are solid with some sections being quite narrow. No lights necessary as there are lights inside already. The trek to the chedi is a bit of a challenge but the view is very nice from the peak of the mountain. Overall very much worth the 20 baht maintenance fee.

Well worth the climb (once inside there are 2 places where the ceiling above the stairs is extremely low and you have to stoop and crawl simultaneously) but expansive and awe inspiring once inside! There were no monkeys or bats the day we went.

Tickets for the scenic spot are 20 baht. Remember to have the exact amount of money ready, there is no change. It takes a while to climb the steps to get to the entrance of the cave. The steps are very high. The hole inside is really deep and shocking! The vertical height is very high, and it takes a while to go down. The cave is very wet, but clean, and there are no bats. It's a place worth visiting! Five-star recommendation!

Unexpectedly large cave! Small 20 baht entrance fee, free parking and a toilet.

We also walked up to the viewing point, its a bit of a climb up the stairs, but worth it for the view.

OK, I've been in a lot of caves, mainly in USA but in Spain too, and this is my all-time favorite. Why? Probably because it was so unexpectedly beautiful and uncrowded. I was unprepared for the grandeur, the immensity of the caverns. Sure, I've seen more "drapery" and adornment in, say, Lewis and Clark and Great Basin's Lehmann Caverns, but the whole experience, being guide-led, and with 30-40 others, was not as enjoyable as this site.

Plus they don't have a giant reclining Buddha or Sitting Buddha watching over this historic Buddhist cave temple.

It has 3, 4 chambers, quite high in spots, and plenty of key ornamentation in spots. It's well-lighted, helpful yet unobtrusive.

Be aware it's a steep climb in/out with a couple low spots -- doing the limbo will be required.

One can take steps on left near entrance/stairs down into cave for sweeping views of the area. There's a chedi up there. It's 15 minutes or so all uphill, a lot of rock stairs.

It's a must-see, especially if you've never been in large caverns, but moreso if you're a fan of sublime subterranean grottos. You won't regret -- or ever forget -- a visit here.

Did I mention wild monkeys? You'll see...

Head up the stairs before you enter into the caves. There are monkeys around and the stairs are steep. Such a wonderful view inside caves.

Beautiful place. After parking your vehicle, you have to walk for 15 minutes up stairs, and then you enter a cave with very steep steps. Although it may seem claustrophobic at the beginning, it's fantastic in the end. Huge rooms full of interesting things. One of the most interesting places I've visited in Thailand

Beautiful cave with several small shrines and Buddha statues. The energy in this place is amazing. We arrived around 8am and were the only visitors so could sit and meditate in the cave in complete stillness, which was a magical experience. You can rent a flashlight at the entrance, but don't really need it as the cave is pretty well lit up. After visiting the cave you can walk up the stairs to see the beautiful view over the surrounding area.

Perfect day trip. Nice cave.
Don't miss to go on the top of the mountain, beautiful 360 view.

A great detour on the way to Mae Kampong. Was charged 10B to park my scooter, 5B to use the toilet and 20B to enter the cave. Torches not needed. Allow about an hour.
