Winter reverse destination: head to 5°N and experience the bustling life of Chiang Mai Old City

🔴Chiang Mai 1-day tour itinerary: Morning: Classic Old City Tour • We recommend starting your tour with the temples in the Old City, including Wat Chedi Luang, Wat Phra Singh, and Wat Chiang Man. These temples are not far from each other and can be reached on foot. • Three Kings Monument: Don't miss the Lanna Museum next to the Three Kings Monument Square, as well as the other two museums connected to it, all of which are located in the heart of the Old City. • Afternoon: Head to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep on Doi Suthep, where the road is lined with lush trees and beautiful scenery. You can overlook the panoramic view of Chiang Mai from the observation deck and see the magnificent temple at Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. • Evening: Head to Nimmanhaemin Road for food, drinks, and entertainment. There are all kinds of stylish shops, cafes, restaurants, and bars. 🔴Night Market Experience • Chiang Mai Night Bazaar: The Chiang Mai Night Bazaar is a great place to experience local food and shopping, with a wide variety of food stalls and goods. Recommended snacks include Chiang Mai sausage, Thai curry noodles, and mango sticky rice. • Sunday Night Market: Starting from Tha Phae Gate, the market stretches for nearly 1 km and is very lively. There are a wide variety of ethnic-style trinkets, scarves, wood carvings, and other small items. 🔴Old City Food • We especially recommend a charcoal grill shop near Chiang Mai Gate. It has no sign and is next to a coffee shop. 100 baht is enough for two people to eat their fill. 🔴Old City Accommodation • Near Tha Phae Gate: There are many inns near Tha Phae Gate, and you can stay in a nice guest house for about 750 baht. 🔴Old City Transportation • Walking or renting a motorcycle: The best way to explore Chiang Mai Old City is to walk or rent a bicycle. It is very convenient to visit the temples, and you can also wander through the streets and alleys to experience the lush old town and the local life. • For longer distances, take a songthaew or grab a taxi.
