After I paid, a customer service representative added me on WeChat very soon. I mentioned the highly praised customer service representative Xiaoyou, who was serious and responsible, communicated promptly, and answered all my questions. Especially on the day when my family was going to the airport to return, we encountered a traffic jam in Chiang Mai due to heavy rain. We couldn't get a taxi. I was unfamiliar with the place and was afraid of missing the plane. I asked Xiaoyou for help with a try. Xiaoyou was very helpful. She didn't refuse me, a tourist she didn't know at all, and the trouble I caused her was not her job. Instead, she helped me find a car enthusiastically and quickly. Thank you so much Xiaoyou. My trip to Chiang Mai ended successfully.
It is nice to spend time with our kids to get to know some animals. We enjoyed the tram rides and the animal shows. But, there is one animal (male whire lipn) during the night show especially first show looks so thin, that we thought whether it has been treated so well or not, it looks like that the lion did not get enough food& treatment. That made us a bit sad. Hope the management of the Safari could improve the quality and conditions of the animals bring shown. For sure, we prefer them to roam freely in their habitats.

Chiang Mai Ancient City, a treasure carrying the history and culture of northern Thailand, attracts travelers from all over the world with its unique charm. Inside the ancient city wall, the Tha Pae Gate stands tall, witnessing the vicissitudes of Chiang Mai for hundreds of years. Strolling on the ancient road paved with bluestone slabs, there are scattered temples and antique buildings on both sides, each exuding a strong historical atmosphere. The literary atmosphere of Nimman Road and the bustling night market of Changkang Road add a perfect blend of modern and traditional to the ancient city. Here, you can taste authentic Thai food and feel the enthusiasm and friendliness of the Thai people. Chiang Mai Ancient City is not only a tourist destination, but also a place where people can relax and cleanse their souls. Whether traveling alone or with family and friends, Chiang Mai Ancient City can bring you an unforgettable travel experience.
There are so many temples in Chiang Mai that you can't visit them all. You will pass by one every time you walk a distance, and each one has its own characteristics. In addition to the Doi Suthep Temple, which I spent half a day to visit alone, City Walk arranged several more famous temples around the ancient city on the last day of Chiang Mai.
📍P1-3 Silver Temple
Locals are free🆓Foreigners need to buy tickets🎫50🐷/person, and they will also give you a bottle of water💦But in fact, the cost-effectiveness is not very high. It is the all-silver building in the picture, and women are not allowed to enter the main hall, so you can only visit it from the outside👀
📍P4-7 Wat Phra Singh
One of the three major temples in Chiang Mai, it is really big inside, and there are many tall green plants in the temple🌲very beautiful. The temple is free to visit🆓, but foreigners need to buy tickets to enter the main hall🎫50🐷/person❗️
📍P8-9 Pan Dao Temple
Actually, I stumbled upon this temple by accident. I was looking for Chedi Luang Temple at first, but after entering, I found that there was no iconic original wall tower, and then I found out that it was another temple [snickering R] The main hall of the temple is a wooden structure, and the road inside the temple is a dirt road. It looks quite simple and primitive. It is quite small inside, and you can finish the tour quickly, but you don’t need to buy tickets here🆓
📍P10-11 Chedi Luang Temple
You need to buy a ticket to enter this temple, which is also🎫50🐷/person. There is a main hall that is also🈲for women to enter. Going in is the main building, a square red brick pagoda, which has traces of history and a sense of age.

I visited Miracle Cabaret in Chiang Mai and it was a fun, flashy night out! Over 200 performers lit up the stage with high-energy dances, bold costumes, and iconic lip-syncs. The vibe was lively and welcoming, though some of the choreography felt a bit basic. I sat in a VIP seat—close to the stage—but honestly, the view might be better from a few rows back where you can see everything more clearly. No drinks were served during the show, which was a little surprising, but the performances made up for it. Definitely a unique cultural experience worth catching if you’re in town!#MiracleCabaret #ChiangMaiNights #ThailandTravel #CabaretMagic #LGBTQShow #ChiangMaiEntertainment #TravelThailand #LiveShowExperience
Highly recommend and must get your ticket on Trip.com! Don’t walk in and buy. Recommend to buy VIP seat and do bring your portable fan and wipes. Chiang Mai is too hot for me even there is aircon provided but not strong. For VIP seat they will give you a small bottle of water so you do not need to bring your own. The seat are terrible!! The chair is old, tear apart and small. Will they upgrade the seat in future? Performance is great! Love it so much! All of them are so pretty! So beautiful!!! So friendly!!! Enjoy the performances so much but remember no photo taking during the performance. After that you can spend your baht to take photo with them. One person 50baht. No obligation. Your choices! PS: They really beautiful and can’t tell them apart!

A mountain that has been part of the city and the sky since I was born. I've visited countless times since I can remember. The last time was during university when I joined the freshman hike up the mountain, walking over 14 kilometers. Was it exhausting? Absolutely. But reaching the top was the most heartwarming feeling, receiving encouragement from seniors, friends, and juniors from all faculties. Since graduating, I’ve gone every year without fail.
a beautiful temple on the mountain in Chiang Mai. From there you can see overview of Chiang Mai city

Can I take my children to see a ladyboy show when I come to Thailand? The answer is: You can watch a regular ladyboy show. The ladyboy show I watched yesterday was mainly singing and dancing, with healthy content suitable for all ages. And I just happened to grab a buy-one-get-one-free ticket on Ctrip (I didn't expect to upgrade to a VIP ticket for free when I arrived at the scene). The average price per person was RMB 32, and it was really a great deal to enjoy more than an hour of singing and dancing. The "ladies" on the scene performed hard throughout the whole show, charming and feminine.
The show was on time. Great performances from the ladies. I love that each Sourh East Asian countries were represented in the show. The venue was a little bit hot. You cannot take photos inside the theater while they are performing.

There are several restaurants that are not bad, pure Thai local dishes, authentic taste; the girls in various small shops should like it very much; other alleys have various jewelry stores, massage shops, it is worth seeing and experiencing; the small bar is lively at night, there are more young local men and women, and the consumption is not high. Experience the local style.
Not only are there large shopping malls MAYA lots of things to buy, but there are also Japanese stalls and Japanese shops outside, and there is also a mock Japanese subway station for people to take pictures!
Across the road to the cultural and creative district, it is very large and very walkable, and the goods sold vary from time to time. There is also a market in the middle of the cultural and creative district, perfect for hipsters!

We had a wonderful Muay Thai experience tonight! There was plenty of seating with good views, and food, drink, merchandise options were readily available for those who are interested. There was great energy in the place
If you buy a VIP ticket, you can sit in a glass house and enjoy the air conditioning, and there are free drinks (beer, cola or water). There will also be service staff who come in to help you bet on the players. But in fact, the view from outside is also quite good, and you can hear the sound of muscles colliding. Sitting in the glass house is quieter but also very conspicuous. Then let me tell you a point that I feel bad: a boxer came in during the match. He was one of the blind fighting sessions (the fourth picture in my picture is a game session. Four people put on blindfolds and blind fight each other to amuse the audience). Then he came in with a plastic box and spoke a lot of Thai English. We didn't understand. Then he said it again. I guessed blindly that he wanted us to donate money or bet. Then everyone gestured to each other and didn't understand. He left angrily, leaving a mocking and cursing word, you VIP! In fact, we were not unwilling to pay, and I had already thought about giving him money. Anyway, he came to you when he sat in the air-conditioned room, but he saw our confused faces and thought we were playing dumb and refused to give. Then he left in anger without giving us time to react. The organizers should at least explain it to us in some way, because we are tourists and don’t know the rules of the boxing match. Many things are just communication problems. If this Thai boxer spreads it, people will think that we Chinese are stingy.
In short, it is still worth experiencing. The match is not too intense, very lightweight, and has a performance nature. If you want to see fierce competition, you have to go to Bangkok to watch professional Muay Thai matches.

Walk through the market along the Ping River to the flower market. There are many beautiful flowers to choose from at affordable prices.
Kad Luang Chiang Mai has a lot of things for sale. Everything is available. The prices are cheap. After buying, you can send the items to the post office. It's good.

In the night market in Chiang Mai, you can find cheap handicrafts, bags, clothing, perfumes, shoes, belts, lanterns, silverware, wood carvings, etc. Everything is available!
The snacks here are more authentic Chiang Mai style.
You can see a side closer to local life in Chiang Mai,
There are sketch artists, street performers, music performers, there are even temple fairs that are as lively as the Chinese New Year!
It’s so cool to spend money at the Saturday night market.
Everything is so cheap, everything is so cute and I want to buy it!
Everyone who comes to the Saturday night market comes home with a lot of loot!
After visiting the Saturday night market, there was a small bar nearby.
Listen to live singing and have a drink in a small bar, how wonderful life is!
oh! Forgot to mention... Although the Saturday night market is a little smaller than the Sunday night market,
But you also need to have the physical strength to run a half marathon to finish the tour!
I especially recommend mango sticky rice. We also eat sticky rice in Guangxi, and mangoes are also abundant. I never thought that these two things together would taste so good... Basically, they are available in night markets, 40 baht a bowl, the taste is not inferior to the Internet celebrity stores, and even the appearance is better.
Thailand's seafood is cheap and delicious. Many seafood in Chiang Mai are not particularly fresh. The really good seafood is on the southern islands. You can try it when you come to Chiang Mai, and you should eat more when you travel to the southern islands.

The food is unlimited and it is fun to eat outdoors when the weather is good. The Thai dance performance is also very nice, and there are dancing sheep asking for tips, which is a very interesting experience. Vegetarian meals can be arranged before 6 o'clock. The travel agency connected with Ctrip does not help arrange it.
Northern restaurant. The food is very delicious. It is served in a khantoke style. There are performances and activities to do. You can also join in the dancing.
