Chiang Mai, Cool Jewel in the North
Chiang Mai is a beautiful city that offers the visitor a choice of modern lifestyles as well as one of yesteryear. It is also a city of progressive social changes and of education centers for all types of skills, to include Thai cooking and Thai massage.
Inhabitants of the city mostly speak Kham Muang (Lanna, or northern Thai) while the more common Central Thai is used in schools and businesses. However, due to Chiang Mai’s growing business and educational class, you will find many folks and establishments fluent in English.
The city emblem of Chiang Mai is a chedi (stupa) at the center, and there are clouds below that symbolize the area’s moderate climate. In Chiang Mai, temperature and rainfall are more bearable then in the most southern parts of the country.
Things To Do & See in Chaing Mai
This part of Thailand offers the traveler that has had enough of beaches and islands a lovely respite from surf cities and unsteady footings over water. Chiang Mai is most noted for the many mountain adventure opportunities; and here are just a few:
Hill-tribe Trekking: nearby to Chiang Mai you will find the villages of the Akha, Hmong, Karen, and Lisu tribes where one can arrange for a tour into a world that time has mostly forgotten.
Free Weekly Guided Hikes: are offered by the Chiang Mai Hiking Club that will walk you deep into the Doi Pui Suthep National Park, and this club has also posted a map of the hiking trails on their web site, just in case you want to go at it alone.
Chiang Mai Night Safari: was established as an evening and late night attraction and is one of only three other nocturnal nature theme parks in the world. Funded by the Thai Government, this safari is twice as large as the one in Singapore, and is the perfect place to see such night predators as tiger, lion, and the Asiatic black bear.
There are many great sites offering information about Chiang Mai: LonelyPlanet.com, 1Stop Chaing Mai travel and hotel guide, and the offical Tourism Thailand site.
