Doi Chiang Dao (th|ดอยเชียงดาว, pronounced as /th/; nod|ดอยเจียงดาว, pronounced as /dɔ̄ːj tɕīaŋ dāːw/), also known as Doi Luang Chiang Dao (th|ดอยหลวงเชียงดาว, pronounced as /th/; nod|ดอยหลวงเจียงดาว, pronounced as /dɔ̄ːj lǔaŋ tɕīaŋ dāːw/), is a high mountain in Chiang Dao District of Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. It is one of the highest peaks of the Daen Lao Range on the Thai side of the border.
Doi Chiang Dao is part of a limestone massif located west-northwest of Chiang Dao town and less than south of the border with Myanmar at the eastern end of the Thai highlands. This mountain is part of Chiang Dao Wildlife Sanctuary, south of Pha Daeng National Park.
Doi Chiang Dao is one of the most visited birdwatching sites in Thailand[3] with over 300 species of birds, including rare species such as the giant nuthatch and Hume's pheasant.[4]
There is a famous cave temple called Wat Tham Chiang Dao, located in the foothills of the mountain.
In 2021, UNESCO declared Doi Chiang Dao to be biosphere reserve, counted as the fifth site in Thailand (after Sakaerat, Hauy Tak Teak, Mae Sa-Kog Ma, Ranong).[5]
