Chiang
Mai is a city built on the roots of a traditional heritage
that dig deep into the soil of time. Named ‘Rose of
the North’ for the abundance of flowers that thrive
in the cooler mountain climate, it has grown from its
origins as a small northern Lanna capital to become
a city representative of modern Thai culture – with
a beautiful cultural personality of its own. In addition,
it has been blessed with much majestic beauty in nature!
The
people themselves are an unforgettable part of Chiang
Mai. Handicrafts of silk, silver and wood are timeless
souvenirs for visitors from all over the globe. Along
with all this, a wide variety of accommodations, restaurants
and entertainment all help to make Chiang Mai one of
Thailand's prime tourist attractions.

- No
visit to Chiang mai would be complete without
a climb up the 1676-meter Doi
Suthep to see the temple and the amazing
view over chiang Mai from the top. the 'chedi'
at the summit is one of the holiest in Thailand.
- Thailand's
tallest mountain, Doi
Inthanon is also a major national park,
with plenty of opportunities for trekking in
the wilderness of Thailand's forest-covered
mountains.
- See
the forests and mountains of the North atop
one of the country's gentle giants - an elephant
trek throught the jungle.
- 'Wet
and wild' can be the only description for Chiang
Mai's water-throwing fun-fest during the annual
Thai New Year
'Songkran' festival. Dress down, arm yourself
with a water pistol, and enjoy this unique and
utterly 'sanuk', traditional event.
- The
Chiang Mai Bazaar is the city's most famous
shopping location and is a must for all visitors
interested in antiques, paintings, textiles,
silverware and crafts.
