What to do in Chiang Mai & Northern Thailand

Chiang Mai offers a good insight in to Thailand's fascinating culture, with dozens of accessible temples in the city, craft villages demonstrating local trades close by, and a wide range of foods on offer. Try a cookery course if you have time! Evenings are a great opportunity to buy a few local crafts in the excellent night market, or try traditional food at a Kantoke evening of traditional Northern cuisine.


Where to stay in Chiang Mai & Northern Thailand

Chiang Mai is a relatively small city in comparison to Bangkok, so location isn't as important. Many of the City's hotels are located close to the walls of the Old City, with those to the east - closer to the river - also offering easy access to the renowned night market. Other towns in the area have more limited options in terms of hotels.

It's easy to combine Chiang Mai with other parts of Thailand, including Bangkok and the beaches of Thailand.

Northern Thailand is a complete contrast to the bustle of Bangkok, and the areas main town, Chiang Mai, is an excellent starting point. Chiang Mai is Thailand's second city, and is far smaller than the capital, retaining a more traditional atmosphere, despite recent growth. Elsewhere, the towns of Chiang Rai and Mae Hong Son, plus the area known as the Golden Triangle, are all really worth exploring.
