Temple Entry in Chiang Mai costs THB 0–40 where residents buy it, and THB 30–100 in the parts of the city built around visitors.

Most of the range comes down to proximity to the places visitors already are. Step outside that radius in Chiang Mai and the price resets.
A useful mental threshold: anything at or under THB 40 is a normal price for temple entry in Chiang Mai. Around THB 20 is the typical everyday figure. Above THB 30 you are paying the visitor rate, whether or not the venue is pleasant.
