Wat Umong was the coolest of the temples I've visited so far. The atmosphere was neat because it was in the jungle outside of Chiang Mai, they had a prayer and sermon playing continuously over a PA system throughout compound, and much of the Wat consists of underground tunnels! These were built for a monk who was clairvoyant. The tunnels snake through the hillside and end in little shrines or deadend with blank walls. It was really creepy walking around underneath the jungle floor!
