Many people ask, "What are you doing in Chiang Mai in this kind of weather? It's hot and it rains some days." The answer is to travel during the time when most people don't travel. This was my second trip to Chiang Mai in my life, and the first time was so long ago that I don't remember when it was. 555555555 First of all, I would like to say that this is my first review. If there are any mistakes, I apologize.

The trip was from July 22-25, with a total of 3 people. We started our journey from Don Mueang Airport and arrived at Chiang Mai Airport around 10 am. Then we picked up the car we rented at a very cheap price.
For accommodation, we chose to stay at BED Changkian Hotel, which we were all very impressed with. The cleanliness, service, location, and BED Changkian Hotel also provided bottled water in the water dispenser, which guests can take as many bottles as they want. In addition, in the morning, there was a simple breakfast such as sticky rice with grilled pork, sticky rice with fried chicken, bread, deep-fried dough sticks, and orange juice.
These pictures are just a part of the trip that I would like to share with everyone, as well as to promote tourism in Thailand. There are still many places that we have never been to.......
The flight time is approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes.
Day 1 : The first stop of this trip is the Grand Canyon Chiang Mai.
The only foreigners there when I went gave it a different kind of atmosphere.
Next up, we have a cafe near the Grand Canyon called Worken Coffee Beach Bar.

Since we had lunch at Kua Gai Nimmanha, which is next to iberry, we stopped by for some ice cream.
The next place is Wat Ton Kwen.
The atmosphere around the temple is very peaceful.
The last stop of the first day is the house next to the temple, which has a variety of restaurants, cafes, and handmade shops.
It's better to go in the morning than in the evening, because there are a lot of mosquitoes.
Let's take a break and have some snacks.
End the first day with a picture of this little duck.

Day 2: We started our day at the Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden, which is about an hour's drive from the city center.
The next stop on the 2nd day is Mon Cham, which is about a 30-minute drive up the mountain from the Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden.
We walked along the path, which was actually a guest accommodation zone 5555555
And then I met this cat lying down and looking at me.

After taking photos at the accommodation, we walked back up to the top area.
It's really foggy.
It's quite beautiful, isn't it?
On the way back to the city, we had to go downhill. This angle has a bit of a Japanese feel to it.
The end of the second day at Wat Umong, located at the foot of Doi Suthep.

Let's end day 2 with this picture.

Day 3: It was a relaxing day that wasn't relaxing at all. We went to Pha Chor, which is about a 1.5-hour drive from Chiang Mai city.
Upon arrival, we had to park our car and walk another 500 meters, which was quite tiring. But it was worth it.

And finally we have reached our destination.
The real place is very beautiful.
On the way back, we had to return the same way, drenched in sweat.
After spending a considerable amount of time at Pha Chor, we decided to grab some food and head back to the hotel to rest. In the evening, we ventured out to the walking street market before returning to our accommodation to prepare for our final day of sightseeing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before leaving the accommodation on the last day, let's take some pictures of the atmosphere.
Day 4: We started our journey at a Khao Soi restaurant located in Nimmanhaemin Soi 13.
They also sell Taiyaki.
The next stop is Kao Mai Lanna Resort, which is very shady.
The atmosphere of the resort
The next stop is Huay Kaew Waterfall, which is about 10 meters high and has water flowing all year round. It is located in the Suthep National Park.
It's another place that doesn't have many Thai people in the hot season.
Walk straight from the entrance for about 100 meters and you will arrive.
Life must fight to get a beautiful picture
The last stop of our trip is the MAIIAM Contemporary Art Museum, which is as new as its name suggests, having opened less than a month ago.
After we had our fill of art, we headed to the airport to wait for our flight back.
We chose a flight that departed from Chiang Mai at 10 pm so that we could enjoy our trip until the very last minute.
This concludes my review.
