Capital of the cultural north. Temples, bazaars and hill tribes
The capital of the cultural north, Chiang Mai is home to over 300 Buddhist temples, a thriving night bazaar and is best known for its access to hill tribes and elephants.
Chiang Mun, Chedi Luang and Phrasingh are some of the most striking temples in the city with strong architectural influences from Lanna Thai and Burma, while locals insist you have not arrived before a visit to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. Out of town and 290 steep steps, or a popular cable car journey later, Wat Phra atop Doi Sutherp Mountain is a spectacular temple in its own right and very rewarding for the panoramic views alone.
Chiang Mai’s night bazaar offers crafts, souvenirs, kitsch and antiques. Even those with the strictest resolve not to buy will be softened by the lively atmosphere and friendly vendors.
Escaping the city, we can arrange white water rafting, cycling through rural villages and visits to responsible elephant sanctuaries as well authentic and personal visits to Thai and Burmese Hill tribes.
