CHIANG MAI - YOUR DESTINATION FOR SIGHTSEEING
AND EXCITING ADVENTURE:
More Temples per Square Kilometre than Bangkok
Golden temples perched on mountain tops and a mystical and ancient lost city are just some of the wonders for you to discover here. Chiang Mai is steeped in history, yet it is a thriving, cosmopolitan city.
The boundaries of the Old City were defined 600 years ago by a romantic moat, now flowered and adorned with many fountains, and medieval city defences, large sections of which are still intact. Within the moated area, one can find many of the city’s three hundred and four temples. These offer a fascinating insight into Chiang Mai’s history.
Chiang Mai is a world-class sightseeing destination where the old and new world coexist flawlessly. Enforced conservation measures to protect the city’s skyline ensure that no high-rise construction can occur within 93 metres of a temple, the Ping River and city walls. For the most part this has been an effective measure.
Breath-taking Natural Vistas
You will find the highest mountains in Thailand here, as well as countless romantic waterfalls, caves, flowered gardens and geysers.
Full on High Octane Adventure
Chiang Mai is also about having fun. It is about pumping adrenaline, enjoying the outdoors, viewing space beneath, ascending impossibly vertical, crossing rapid water, driving off road, exploring unchartered 12 KM cave complexes, trekking through the jungle, white water rafting and rock climbing at Crazy Horse Buttress and Kewlom, Lampang or rappelling down 530 feet at The Spirit Well Cave in Pai. Not to mention canoeing down the Wachiratarn Waterfall at the highest peak of Thailand.
A lovely fluent English-Speaking Licensed Tour Guide is available at the resort for 750 THB/day (about $25), or we can book tours for you.

2. The City Moat Fountains and Walls

The City Walls and Fountains
King Mengrai founded the city of Chiang Mai (meaning "new city") in 1296. The city was surrounded by a moat and a defensive wall, since nearby Burma was a constant threat as well as the armies of the Mongol Empire. The city moat, the four city gates and defensive walls still form a distinctive romantic feature. They are adorned with beautiful fountains and flowers.

4. Wat Phra Singh

Wat Phra Singh
110 Changklan Road chaiang mai 50100, Thailand
+66 83 949 0933
This temple was built in the period of Phra Chao Maha Proma (1345-1400), which is home to Phra Buddha Sihing, Chiang Mai’s most important and sacred Buddha image. Wat Phra Singh was built inside the old city walls at a time when Chiang Mai was the capital of the northern Thai Lanna or Lan Na kingdom. The wat was originally built in 1345. It may have simply been a stupa erected by a king (and descendant of the great Mangrai) to honour his father. The stupa still stands, but most of the buildings you see on the site today are of much more recent vintage.

10. Wat Chedi Luang

Wat Chedi Luang
North on the Inner Ring Road
Wat Chedi Luang's massive chedi (pagoda) was built sometime between 1385 and 1402, during the reign of King Saen Muang Ma, 7th ruler of the Mengrai dynasty and is a distinctive feature of the Chiang Mai skyline. At its peak, the chedi measured 60 metres across at the square base and 80 metres tall and was once the home of the Emerald Buddha, Thailand's most sacred religious relic. Damaged during an earthquake in 1545, the chedi’s height is reduced to nearly half of its original size yet it is still an impressive structure. In 1992, the Fine Arts Department finished restoration work around the chedi, bringing back the naga (water serpent) staircase on each of its faces and wonderful statues of elephants adorning the base.

Must See Festivals
Loi Krathong (October/November)

Loi Krathong
The most beautiful festival in Thailand. Loy Krathong, is held on the night of the full moon of the 12th month of the Thai calendar every year - around November. During the festival the rivers become full of floats, known as krathong, which are of different shapes and sizes. They are beautifully decorated with both fresh and dry flowers. With candles lit, they become like stars drifting through the heavens made bright by the light of the full moon reflected on the surface of the waters. One of the most interesting objects is the colorful khom loy, or sky lantern. Built in a variety of shapes and sizes, they are released into the sky during the day and night. The lanterns in the sky and the lamps on the ground adorn the sky and the city with a myriad of lights, while all around firecrackers are released in dazzling shows.

The Flower Festival (February)

The Flower Festival
Once a year the streets of Chiang Mai explode in a kaleidoscopic array of color as the Flower Festival commences. Towards the end of the cool season, in early February, Chiang Mai is looking its best. Everywhere there is a riot of color as temperate flowers such as asters, salvias and marigolds come into full bloom to join the tropical orchids and bougainvilleas. Some fifty villages as well as other private and government organizations compete to create the most spectacular floral floats. These are covered overall with flower heads in intricate designs and made in the shape of dragons, castles, mountains and so on. Atop each float sits a beautiful girl dressed in sumptuous northern Thai costume. The procession wends its way slowly through the streets of the city, which is lined with throngs of people cheering.

Songkran (April)

Songkran
Celebration of Chiang Mai New Year. April 13th, 14th and 15th. The first day of the festival is the last day of the old year. Houses are spring-cleaned, clothes washed and Buddha statues and amulets blessed with lustral water. The
second day was an in-between sort of day when people prepared for the New Year which would start on the 14th. It was a day of fun and relaxation and the throwing of water intensified. Girls were allowed and encouraged to become physically and sexually aggressive, bawdy singing competitions were held between groups of boys and girls. Much of the pageantry associated with the Sonkran Festival - the Beauty Competition, the parade of girls on bicycles, the dances and drumming displays, etc.- have been newly created for the benefit of tourists.

Riding the Falls at Mae Pan

Extreme Sports
About 16 kilometres from Mae Chaem town, on the road leading to Doi Inthanon, the awesome Mae Pan Waterfall can be
found. There is a sign at the roadside directing travellers to these falls, the highest in Chiang Mai. Take the signposted road
and follow it for 9 kilometres, then a 10 minute walk will bring you to the falls. Surging over a 100 metre high cliff, the white of the racing water stands out dramatically against the deep green of the surrounding forest. As the water hits the rocks below, a million tiny drops split the sunlight into rainbow colours and soak the vegetation nearby. Downstream from the falls are a series of pools where the traveller can swim in the chilly mountain waters. The sala on a mound close by the falls, affords a shady place to sit and enjoy a panoramic view of the waterfall.

The tigers are in great condition and certainly not drugged. The whole package includes entry into the three cages (babies, medium sized and full sized tigers). The handlers give clear instructions of what you can and cant do and seem to genuinely like their jobs and the animals. Not something you will do every day so definitely worth it. About 1,300 Baht gets you two enclosures and buffet lunch. http://www.tigerkingdom.com/Home.htm
