My Wine: A Recommended Spot for Couples in Chiang Mai
My Wine
This newly opened restaurant offers a spacious environment with plenty of parking, making it very convenient.
As soon as you step inside, the atmosphere feels entirely different, as if you've been transported to Japan or Europe. The restaurant offers a variety of wines. We tried the pork saddle (highly recommended), pizza, pasta, and craft beer!
Before your dinner date, we recommend stopping by My Wine for a drink to enjoy the ambiance.

Eggy Eggy in Chiang Mai
If you’re looking for a close to authentic Hongkong Style noodles, Eggy Eggy is the place to be. Completing their menu, you can find an array of braised beef dishes, curries and some western fusion meals. Our favorite thing about this restaurant is how affordable it was. Aside from that, we weren’t really expecting how good the coffee was. Especially the coconut coffee. It was a cocoon smoothie with one espresso shot served on a shot glass that you pour over the smoothie. What a pleasant surprise. highly recommended and would definitely come back.

The 2024 Chiang Mai Yi Peng Festival was a feast for the eyes.
The unforgettable 2024 Chiang Mai Yi Peng Festival has come to an end 🥰🙏🤤
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to enter the venue twice, which gave me more time and opportunities to capture more material and precious moments 🥰🥰🥰
It also gave me time to put down my camera and shoot a 3-minute MV for everyone 🥰🥰👏👏👏🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭
The venue was huge, with several areas, and it was impossible to capture world-class images for everyone to enjoy in just two hours 🤤🤤🤤
Especially at the moment when the lanterns were released, the whole venue was filled with beautiful scenery and chaos 🙈🙈🙈
The image of the lanterns reflected in the water was a small regret because of the distance 🥶😂
But that's okay, next year's venue for 10,000 people will be even more spectacular 🥰🤤
See you next year 🙏🙏🙏🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Here are 30 unforgettable world-class memories from the past two days to share with you 🥰🙈👋
Looking forward to seeing you in Chiang Mai in 2025 with Bucket List Ticked & Bucket List Asia 🤩🤩🤩

Chiang Mai Tong Tung Market
Tong Tung Market (กาดต๋องตึง บ้านริมน้ำ) is a weekend market located in the suburbs of Chiang Mai, Thailand.
The market is known for its DIY products made by the vendors. These products are usually only available at Tong Tung Market and are reasonably priced.
The vendors come from different backgrounds, including retired civil servants, students, and entrepreneurs. They share their handicrafts and do small business here.
Another attraction of Tong Tung Market is its support policy for vendors. New vendors can enjoy three months of free rent, and the management fee is only THB 70 per day, which is very cost-effective for vendors. The market was set up by the landlord to help locals and revitalize the economy. The vendors have a good relationship and help and take care of each other.
In addition to products, Tong Tung Market also offers authentic food and drinks, all handmade, some of which are made to order on site, showing the authentic Thai family handmade style. The atmosphere of the market is very pleasant, and the vendors seem to be very happy, with a cheerful spirit, which visitors can feel.
In addition, Tong Tung Market also offers free handicraft classes taught by the vendors themselves, as well as a free pricing area where the products are donated by philanthropists and the proceeds are used for charity, which is very meaningful.

"Count to Three Food Stalls | A Feast of Food."
| A Feast of Food." 😎 Count to Three Food Stalls really amazed me! As soon as I entered, the lively atmosphere hit me.
🥩 First, the grilled beef is tender and juicy, each piece is grilled to perfection, and the full aroma of the meat spreads in the mouth, as if the taste buds are cheering. The grilled gluten is also great, the skin is slightly crispy, but the inside is still tender, and the special sauce is brushed on, making the taste rich and layered. There is also grilled bean curd, which is full of bean aroma and chewy, the more you chew, the more fragrant it is.
🐟 Grilled fish is the highlight of the show! The fish skin is crispy and delicious, the fish is tender, and there are peanuts inside, which adds a unique crispy taste to the grilled fish. The bean sprouts in the grilled fish are also delicious, absorbing the freshness of the fish, and are tender and smooth. Fish skin is one of my favorites, the crispy feeling is really amazing! The leeks are also very fresh, green and dripping, and taste refreshing and delicious.
🧂 There are many seasoning bottles here, you can mix the most suitable barbecue taste according to your own preferences, which is really great! It can satisfy your unique taste needs for every skewer of barbecue.
Whether it's a dinner with friends or a family gathering, this place is very suitable. The service is also good and the price is affordable. I highly recommend everyone to come to Count to Three Food Stalls to enjoy the food! 👏👏👏

The dam features breathtaking views of a serene sea surrounded by green mountains, offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. I enjoyed walking on the bridge that provides stunning views of the lake and surrounding area. The atmosphere was particularly refreshing with fresh air and clean scenery. This place is perfect for a quiet day away from the crowds, whether you want to take a walk or just sit and enjoy the natural beauty.

Found a super beautiful estate in Chiang Mai
This story goes back four or five years. When I first noticed this estate, it was before the mask era. The partner of the estate is my senior brother, and at that time, he was in charge of the entire BP and marketing part. Later, due to well-known reasons, it couldn't hold on and had to retreat back to China.
But this estate is still here, and it just took advantage of this gap period to carry out a series of design renovations. After the mask mandate was lifted, it took some time for the business to gradually pick up. It wasn't until later when I also came to Chiang Mai that I officially met the lady owner of the estate.
Let's not talk about the story, let's talk about the estate. The estate is located in San Sai District, Chiang Mai, 8.2 km from Central Festival, about a ten-minute drive.
The estate was designed by Thailand's top architect Rachen Intawong, combining Southern French and Thai styles. The rooms are furnished with teak furniture and intricately carved wooden doors. The estate covers an area of more than 20,000 square meters, with a hundred-acre rice field landscape, lawns, and lotus ponds at the entrance. Currently, there are 10 rooms and 5 independent villas. It is deeply loved by the Thai royal family and nobility.
The estate regularly hosts various activities, such as SPA, flower arrangement classes, birthday dinners, engagement ceremonies... It is a place full of romance and fresh uniqueness. The estate also has a restaurant where you can have afternoon tea or order meals. The dishes taste very good and the presentation is quite exquisite.
Meet, with a breeze, with sunshine, with flowers blooming all around.

KHAO-SO-i.
💞Reason for Recommendation: This is a famous Northern Thai restaurant in Chiang Mai. Even on a weekday, it was quite crowded, but the queue system was well-organized, so we didn't have to wait long to get in. The main menu focuses on Khao Soi, which has a perfectly balanced and delicious flavor. It's a fusion-style Khao Soi with a variety of toppings to choose from. After finishing the Khao Soi, we had Hokkaido milk ice cream and matcha green tea, both of which were incredibly smooth and delightful. If you're in the area, you should definitely give it a try! 😘😘

Chiang Mai Long Neck Tribe| Conveying a cruel beauty to the world, it's worth experiencing on a family trip
*All character photos are taken with the consent of the villagers themselves, and cannot be reproduced
The Long Neck Tribe is composed of the Padong Tribe
Beauty is defined by the length of the neck
From the age of 5-6, a copper ring is worn every year
The continuous weight causes damage and deformation of the collarbone
So the necks of the Long Neck Tribe people look longer
The longest can reach 70 centimeters
Initially, I entered the village with curiosity
When they really appear in front of you
There will inevitably be some discomfort in my heart
Especially after trying the weight of the collar
Several Long Neck Tribe children are playing and making noise
But when they see tourists coming
They still very "professionally" return to their parents
I asked them if they didn't go to school because it was the weekend?
She nodded, her mother said she would go to school on Monday
This answer made me less nervous
I like to take my children to visit such cultural attractions
Although it may not be as you expected
Although he may not understand
But after all, he knows that the color of the world is not just the color in front of him
And life is not a single style
The diversity of culture is far more complicated than we think
Even heavy
I just hope that there is sunshine behind
Blossoming stubborn and beautiful flowers

Encounter Chiang Mai Water Lantern Festival Thailand Qixi Tour
Encounter Chiang Mai Water Lantern Festival🌸Thailand Qixi Tour🌸
🌸Tha Pae Gate—White Temple, Blue Temple, Black House—Elephant Conservation Camp—Twin Dragon Temple, Chiang Mai University
Tha Pae Gate: It's actually just a gate of the ancient city, but you can feed pigeons and take pictures at this gate, many girls check in and take pictures here
🌸White Temple, Blue Temple, Black House are in Chiang Rai, I suggest booking a group directly online, because the drive takes three hours
🌸Elephant Conservation Camp: Actually, I think the elephant interaction in the ancient city is very worthwhile, because they are really wild elephants, and the local elephant trainers are very fun. You need to bring a set of new clothes and a swimsuit
🌸Twin Dragon Temple, Chiang Mai University: On the last day, I stayed in Nimman Road, I saw that it was quite close to the Twin Dragon Temple, so I took a taxi to take a look. It is said that the relics of high monks are enshrined, and it is the most famous temple locally. Then I went down the mountain and went into Chiang Mai University to take pictures.
🌸There are so many places to release water lanterns! As long as there are rivers and ponds, they will almost become the place where water lanterns are released. On the festival day, the riverside is full of couples who release lanterns to pray for a happy love.
🌸Although the Water Lantern Festival is celebrated all over Thailand, only Chiang Mai can experience one of the 'Seven Wonders of Thailand', the Sky Lantern of Ten Thousand People! People wear traditional Northern Thai costumes, and houses and temples are decorated with colored and white flags and banana leaves
