#100 Ways to Travel As we all know, most of the affordable hot pot buffets in Chiang Mai are open-air or semi-open-air, and many of the dining environments are very ordinary. Eating it in a hot climate will make you sweat profusely. And I found a Japanese hot pot buffet restaurant with air conditioning indoors, and the decoration environment is elegant and clean. The key is only 249 baht per person. Unlimited quantity. This shop is Shabu buffet immee. It has two pot bases, one is Sukiyaki pot and the other is Thai Tom Yum Kung. The 249 baht set menu allows you to order unlimited beef eye, shrimp🦐, pork shoulder, pork belly, tuna sushi🍣, fruit, ice cream🍨, smoothies and soft drinks. The price/performance ratio is very high. My personal favorite is their pork belly, which is cut very thin and tastes very fragrant. This store is very popular, and you have to queue up even if you go there late. And I went there at 4pm, and there were already quite a few people there. So I suggest you go there early. Opening hours from 11 noon to 11 pm Store address: 61 1 Arak Rd, Tambon Si Phum, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50200. In the ancient city of Chiang Mai, it is very convenient to take a taxi or walk there.

The Chiang Mai Yi Peng Festival is my favorite Thai festival, bar none. The ancient city is adorned with lanterns everywhere, and there are activities all around the old town. Each temple hosts various events, and during the festival, temples that usually require tickets are open to all visitors for free. You can enjoy the lanterns, make wishes, and release floating lanterns and sky lanterns, which is a lot of fun. After that, you can visit the North Gate Night Market, South Gate Night Market, and the night market behind Chiang Mai University to enjoy some snacks and stroll around leisurely. The best place to watch the parade is at Tha Phae Gate, but it is also very crowded there, which is quite interesting. Additionally, I recommend my favorite temple, which is shown in the photo below with lanterns hanging everywhere. Location Name: Wat Lok Molee (วัดโลกโมฬี) Address: 298/1 Manee Nopparat Rd, Si Phum Sub-district, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50200

พิถี phithi, not far from Carrot Coffee, is a snack shop run by a young couple. The shop is warm and friendly, and provides simple but authentic Thai food. I ordered beef rice noodle soup and Thai milk. The beef was tender and the beef balls were chewy. The soup is delicious and the noodles taste very refreshing and have an excellent texture. The Thai milk is made fresh, which is unexpectedly labor-intensive. It is not overly sweet and tastes delicious. It’s not bad to have a glass of Thai milk filled with ice cubes at noon in the hot weather! The four points we visited in the ancient city happened to be nearby and could be combined into one itinerary to kill half a day: 1. Coffee: Carrot Coffee 2.Art Gallery: Kalm Village 3.

It's my second visit to Chiang Mai, and this quiet little city is full of hidden gems. In an inconspicuous corner of the northwest of the old city of Chiang Mai, there is a white European-style building with golden decorations, distressed murals, and carvings, all exuding a Renaissance style. 🏛 There is a separate building that you must visit, where you need to remove your shoes. The carvings and the colored window grilles inside are really exquisite, as if they are the palaces of the Versailles Garden. - 📍Versailles de flore ☕️ You can enjoy coffee and afternoon tea, 🏊🏻 and there is also a swimming pool for a swim.

Thai people have a unique artistic talent in temple construction, and the temples in Chiang Mai each have their own characteristics, worthy of a pilgrimage one by one. The White Temple is known for its pure white purity, the Black Temple is a modern museum that integrates architectural aesthetics, and the Blue Temple makes extensive use of blue and Lanna elements. In the old city area, there is the historically significant Wat Phra Singh, the Lanna-style Wat Chiang Man, and Wat Chedi Luang with its Sri Lankan stupa. The glittering Twin Dragons Temple on Suthep Mountain is also a must-visit attraction. You can follow the travel agency's recommended route to experience the charm of different temples in the ancient city and feel the unique architectural art and cultural atmosphere of Northern Thailand. This temple tour is sure to make you linger and forget to return.

#wheretogo In the heart of Chiang Mai's ancient city in Thailand, I encountered an impressive but nameless golden stupa. I arrived here in the morning to discover a meticulously designed golden stupa surrounded by various golden animal statues. At the center of the stupa, intricate carvings of various Buddha images were visible. In front of it, a red table held offerings and fresh flowers, and I respectfully joined my hands in prayer as a sign of reverence. Across from the golden stupa, there was a building housing several Buddha statues. Overall, this was a profoundly sacred place, with its intricate design, golden accents, and the sense of serenity it exuded.

The restaurant is clean, hygienic, and the food is delicious. The prices are not expensive. The Kimmali was really delicious when eaten while it was hot, so I seriously considered ordering another plate..I almost missed Korea while traveling in Thailand for a long time, but I felt the taste of Korea in a foreign countryㅎㅎ It also has good Google ratings, and many people say that it tastes the most similar to Korea. When I visited, there weren't many menus, but they say they have other menus now, so if you miss Korean food, especially snacks, while traveling, visit! #ChiangMai #ChiangMaiRestaurants #ChiangMaiKoreanRestaurants #ThailandChiangMai #ChiangMaiTravel #ThaiKoreanRestaurants #ChiangMaiSowon

There are various markets in Chiang Mai. Especially on weekends, just looking around the market will make the weekend go by in an instant. One of them is Ba Pao Market! Also known as Bamboo Market. As shown in the picture, it is covered with green palm trees and is popular as a photo spot for many tourists. This place only sells food and is relatively small in size, so you can feel leisurely and peaceful. However, it is only open during the day, so I recommend going early! #ChiangMaiTravel #ChiangMaiMarket #ChiangMaiWeekendMarket #BambooMarket

Internet-famous hotel "The Inside House" Located in the ancient city, with a 711 at the doorstep. Small hotels are full of details, every corner is a photo opportunity. If you come to Chiang Mai and don't stay here for a night, I will be sad. Failed to book a room with a pool, but I will come back next time! Upon check-in, a welcome drink is provided. The hotel has prepared fruits and desserts in the room. From 1pm to 5pm, there are complimentary drinks and fixed desserts for afternoon tea. At night, there will be a goodnight dessert on the bedside table, which is really thoughtful. In the bathroom, there are lipsticks, nail clippers, and even a curling iron. The fruits in the room are updated every day, and there are also flowers and orchids decorating the minibar in the cabinet, all of which are free. Every corner is full of Moroccan style, white buildings wrapped in green plants, perfectly designed. The only downside is that the scent in the hotel is all almond flavor, and I hate almond flavor.

#Emotional Accommodation #Chiang Mai #Southeast Asia Travel Chiang Mai, a popular travel destination for a month! The monthly rent for a luxury condo with a pool is similar to the monthly rent in Korea, which is why many travelers visit here😉 You can also stay for a short period like a hotel, even if it's not a month! I stayed at Ecent, which was also featured on Tokpawon25, for 3 days. Unfortunately, the day I went, the pool was under construction, so I couldn't enjoy it, but it's a place that has not only a pool but also a gym where you can exercise and a shared lounge where you can work. Above all, the accommodation was so beautifully decorated with emotion that I felt good just staying in the room♥️💜💛It was a separate one-room type, and even had kitchen facilities, so it was perfect for staying alone👍🏻 Even the small props were cutely decorated, so I could feel a cozy atmosphere just staying in the room~ 📍Escent Park VILLA

#Southeast Asia Travel This is The Baristro cafe near Chiang Mai train station. It's a hot chain cafe in Chiang Mai, and it's a trendy and emotional cafe with an interior.

I took the night sleeper train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, Thailand. It’s not cheaper than a plane, and it takes 12 hours, but as a long-term backpacker, I couldn’t give up the romance..! It’s even more delicious to buy various snacks at convenience stores and on the street before boarding and eat them on the train. If you take the night train, you can also see the sunset while you’re traveling. In the evening, the train crew will personally transform the chair into a bed! Of course, you’ll have to wake up in the morning^^; It’s small, but the bathroom is clean and air-conditioned. I don’t think you necessarily need a first-class seat, and I personally recommend the first-floor second-class car on the new train. However, the first-floor car has windows and is comfortable, so it’s popular, so make a reservation in advance on the website!! I’ve used both the first and second floors, and I definitely like the first-floor car because it has windows. The Chiang Mai train station we arrived at early in the morning was so beautiful :) #Thailand #Thailand travel #Chiang Mai #Bangkok #Train travel #Thailand train #Sleeping train #Chiang Mai travel #Southeast Asia travel #Train station #Hua Lamphong

Chiang Mai is a foreign city that is particularly suitable for independent travel. The travel services on Ctrip are comprehensive, with airport pick-up and drop-off services for only 10-30 RMB, half-day tours to "Doi Suthep Temple" and "Bhubing Palace", family-friendly activities such as "Mae Wang Elephant Camp" and "Night Safari", and the most recommended one-day tour to the White Temple and Black Temple in Chiang Rai. On the day of departure, there will be a special car to pick up and drop off at the hotel. Even if your English is poor, there will be a Chinese tour guide accompanying you throughout the journey. I chose to depart on Friday because as a foodie, I didn't want to miss the most famous Saturday and Sunday night markets in Chiang Mai, where there are various cheap and delicious snacks and exquisite handmade products for sale. Chiang Mai is the second largest city in Thailand. It not only has a leisurely pace, but also is full of ancient and profound cultural heritage. You can walk around in slippers on the streets and alleys, and if you get tired, you only need to take a tuk-tuk or songthaew for 20 baht (5 RMB) as transportation. Strolling through any street or alley in the ancient city of Chiang Mai, you can encounter magnificent or peaceful Buddhist temples. This small city with a population of 500,000 surprisingly has over 300 temples of all sizes, and you may get confused. However, there are several particularly famous temples that you must visit. The first "Wat Phra Singh". It is the largest Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, built in the 14th century, and is a perfect example of Lanna-style architecture. The first thing that catches your eye when entering the temple is the glittering golden Buddha statue, and the murals in the hall depict the ancient local costumes and customs. In the center of the temple is a 20-meter golden white tower, which is a strong representative style of Thai temples. The second "Qidilong Temple", also known as the Big Buddha Temple, is decorated with snakes and peacocks at the temple gate. There is a huge Buddha statue in the main hall, and the sense of space and the golden decorations inside the temple are very magnificent and exquisite. Along the path to the back square, there is a big Buddha pagoda. Although the ancient pagoda has been weathered by time and earthquakes, it appears majestic and magnificent under the reflection of the golden lotus flowers, with a simple and rustic charm. The third "Wat Chiang Man", the first temple in Chiang Mai, was built in 1300 and is the oldest temple in Chiang Mai. The best building in the temple is the stupa of the main temple, which is surrounded by 15 elephants at the base, giving it a simple and vicissitudinous appearance that contrasts sharply with the dazzling golden elephant spire. Not far from the city, the "Double Dragon Temple" on the Suthep Mountain, also known as the Suthep Temple, is named after two long dragons sitting and lying on both sides of the steps. It is a famous Buddhist summer resort in Thailand. The Thai royal summer palace is also built on Suthep Mountain. The Phuping Palace can be opened to the public when the royal family is not there from April to December. The palace has beautiful white walls and yellow tiles, and is located in the green mountains and trees, with its own beauty of coolness and peace. The two breathtaking temples in Chiang Rai, the White Temple and the Black Temple, are the highlights of a trip to Chiang Mai. The White Temple was built by designer Cheler Mchai at his own expense and was first established in 1997. The entire complex is pure white and lustrous, with only small pieces of polished glass as borders or decorations, which is quite different from the usual temples. The details, such as the flying birds on the eaves, the standing statues on the roof, the reclining turtles on the pillars, and the flowing clouds on the flags, all reflect the exquisite and delicate design, which is a masterpiece of art. The White Temple tells the story of how one can reach the Buddhist paradise by crossing the Naihe Bridge and avoiding the temptation of hell with a single-minded focus. Next to the White Temple is a "glittering" golden building, which is actually a toilet and is probably the most beautiful toilet in the world. The Black Temple is located in a forest of lush grass, consisting of many intricately constructed Thai temples made of original logs. The theme of the Black Temple is hell and death, with water buffalo skulls lined up on the ground, animal skins and large shells on the table, and a complete elephant skeleton and dried snake specimens on display. The creator, Mr. Thawan Duchanee, spent 36 years gradually designing and building this huge open-air, garden-style private art museum. His disciple and friend, a Buddhist artist, was inspired by him to create the still unfinished White Temple. In Chiang Mai, magnificent temples can be seen everywhere, filled with the mysterious charm of Eastern Buddhist culture. With cheap prices and convenient transportation, it is definitely a perfect place for you to temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and people you see with your eyes open or closed, and let yourself fly. Take some beautiful photos that will make you want to cry and savor them slowly.

#Chiangmaijuk #Chiangmaibreakfastrestaurant #Chiangmaifood #Chiangmaialleyfood #Chiangmaibreakfast #Chiangmaibreakfastspecialtystore #Chiangmaibreakfast In a small alley on the Old Town side, there is a place that specializes in breakfast. It is open from 6:30 AM, so it is a breakfast specialty store, but it is also open until 2 PM, so it is okay to go for lunch. However, the menu here is very light for lunch, so if you eat it for lunch, your hands might shake around 4 or 5 PM… ㅎㅎㅎ If you go to the place that Google guides you to, you won't see this store right away. You have to go into a smaller alley to find this store. This restaurant is a place that looks old but has a nice feel, like a home. When you enter the door that is not very high, the ceiling is low, but the restaurant is decorated with warm and cozy lights. It was just a warm and cozy restaurant As soon as you sit down, they serve you warm tea. They serve you warm tea in this hot Chiang Mai.. Why.. is it good..ㅎㅎㅎ The porridge is delicious.. The steamed bread is also delicious.. The bread is much softer than the #Kop Ak Ko Dam I went to before. I ordered porridge here.. and ordered custard cream and steamed bread together. But after all.. this is a breakfast restaurant.. It was too little for lunch..ㅎㅎㅎ A perfect menu for breakfast!! A sentimental place to go for breakfast at least once.

Chiang Mai is famous for its markets. Among them, Coconut Market opens in the morning and closes around 4 o'clock. If you go to Coconut Market, the scenery is so beautiful that even if you don't buy food, It's a place you must visit just to see the scenery~ # Market # Hot place # Restaurant tour # Thailand travel destination recommendation There are many foods that I've tried at regular night markets, so you can choose according to your taste. Among them, I recommend Coconut Ice Cream. I didn't add any toppings, but you can add them according to your taste😊 I recommend Coconut Market! + It takes about 10-15 minutes by taxi from Old Town.

Going to Chiang Mai has always on my bucket list. Chiang Mai gave me a clam and peaceful vibe to enjoy, explore, and learn from the life of local people. Travelling as local is the best and affordable way for budget traveler. The town is small and safe to rent to scooter to explore.

if you want to experience a very cozy cafe with many instagrammable spot… Mars Cafe in Chiangmai is the place to be! They provide good varieties of drinks and freshly baked goodies! Aside from those mentioned their comfort rooms is very spacious and clean as well! the location is not far from the Weekend Night Market and can be search through google and apple maps!#amazingthailand #thailand #foodie #cafe #passionpassport #mars
