  The Wat Sri Suphan is one of the oldest in Chiang Mai, built initially between 1495 and 1515. It's been destroyed and rebuilt over the centuries. There are still boundary stones in the complex that show the original building. Within the complex, there is a stone tablet over 500 years old. The language on the tablet is Faak Khaam which predates the Lanna. The actual Silver Temple itself is now the main shrine. Afterward, you'll visit Warorot Market (Kad Luang). Warorot Market is one of the places where lots of Thai locals do their shopping, so expect to find the same or similar goods that you see at other Markets also sold here but cheaper and usually of better quality.
