Tourist Guide Chiang Mai:

Chiang Mai is the second largest and one of the most significant cities in Thailand. Located on the Ping River, it is also the capital of the Chiang Mai Province. Home to a population of about 170,000 inhabitants, Chiang Mai is regarded as one of the premiere destinations in Asia owing to its mix of modern and traditional charm.

The climate in Chiang Mai is equatorial in nature with hot, humid summers and pleasant, cool winters. During July to October, monsoon rains bring forth the lush greenery. Winters are the best time to visit as this is when the climate is mild with bright sunshine and blooming flowers.

Chiang Mai was founded in 1296 and was a significant centre for pottery, carving and other arts. The city has still retained its glory in the various art and crafts shops. Today, it is a rapidly developing city in Thailand.

Chiang Mai is my favourite, because its culture and history with its pretty moat, crumbling city walls and many tempels and pagodas. you can make adventure trips to mountain national parks and waterfalls, trekking, elephant riding, family attractions and more. The Night Bazaar and the Sunday Walking Street are a must being in Chiang Mai. Last but not least... all before mentioned goes along with affordable accomodation and restaurants.

Many thing are not good here, the food is to spicy every where, so a good thai restaurants is not easy to find, a like cream tartaar in san kampaeng. They have verry good food only you can have bier or something stronger. The service is bad in the big shopping centrums and they dont speak english.
Not to be missed:
the caves
