A journey through time...back to the past
Walking through "Khum Muang Mint" feels like...getting lost...
In....the residence of the Lanna lord in Nan province.
Classic, beautiful, peaceful.
Whenever choosing accommodation...if possible
We tend to choose accommodation that is not just... a place to sleep.
But it is...accommodation
Where you can walk around, relax and have fun.
And there are special corners
Where you can take pictures as souvenirs.
In Nan, during our trip to the city center, we chose
Khum Muang Mint
Boutique Hotel, beautiful classic Lanna style
NearWat Phumin, a famous temple, the location of
"Whisper of Love", the symbol of Nan.
And Nan National Museum
which hasPlumeria Pavilion, a popular spot for taking pictures.
A two-story wooden and concrete house
Colonial style in green and cream
Stands out on A-Chit Wong Road
Looks simple, beautiful, and most inviting
The front of the hotel
The ground floor is a restaurant with wide open doors
At the terrace, set a table
To sit and sip coffee
Looking at the simple life of Nan people passing by
Inside, a check-in counter awaits.
Dark wood chairs, arranged as a seating area,
grace the edge of a sprawling lawn,
inviting guests to linger and relax.
Located near the check-in counter is
the staircase leading to the second floor of the accommodation, decorated with beautiful patterned tiles
and local decorations that look perfectly beautiful.
The second floor of the Khum Muang Mint features paintings of Pu Man Ya Man, a symbol of Nan Province, whispering sweet nothings to each other. There are also intricate wood carvings in the Lanna style, making it a perfect spot for taking beautiful photos.
The walkway to the guest rooms is adorned with wooden walls, creating a sense of understated warmth.
One side is a bedroom, the other side is a living room with a wicker chair set for reading and relaxing.
The second floor is adorned with numerous antique photographs, transporting visitors back to a time when their grandparents were young.
Hello.
Our bedroom tonight is just as classic as the other corners.
Light purple walls with floral curtains
And dark wood furniture
It looks retro, beautiful and warm.
A peaceful night at "Khum Muang Mint"
A good night's sleep
Waking up early in the morning
Intending to capture the sunlight of a new day
Before returning to recharge
With a breakfast buffet at the dining room
Breakfast here is served
From 7 am to 10 am
Breakfast Options: A Culinary Journey
The breakfast spread offers a delightful array of culinary experiences, catering to diverse palates. From the hearty American breakfast to the comforting warmth of rice porridge with fish, the menu presents a symphony of flavors.
For those seeking a taste of local tradition, the market-style breakfast inspired by the culinary heritage of Lanna, a region in northern Thailand, is a must-try. This selection features delectable treats like "Pa Tong Go" (deep-fried dough sticks), steamed "Fattong" (a type of rice cake), and "Man Nung" (steamed sticky rice). These dishes, bursting with flavor and cultural significance, promise a truly authentic experience.
This is the highlight of our breakfast today.
Steamed pumpkin, steamed sweet potato, and banana.
Where else can you find this kind of breakfast like this? ^_^
The American breakfast corner is arranged in a Thai kitchen cabinet, which is very cute.
Alternatively, you can opt for a steaming bowl of rice porridge, which is also packed with delicious ingredients and worth trying.
"Alright, let's order everything. We'll try it all. Then we can go for a walk and get some exercise, okay?"
To capture the morning scenery of Nan city,
we need to check the coordinates carefully.
According to Google Maps, it takes less than 10 minutes to walk
to capture the morning view of Wat Phumin
and the Lanna arch in front of the Nan National Museum.
.--------------------
But before we go, let's stop by the newly opened hotel,
which is owned by the same owner as Khum Muang Mint, which is located nearby.
"Mintara"
Designed in a European style, the building exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The most prominent feature that reveals its close connection to the "Khum Muang Mint" is undoubtedly the identical color scheme of light and dark green.
The front is open and airy, with a sitting area. There are wicker chairs for leaning back and reading a book. There are bicycles available to borrow for a leisurely ride.
Charming and inviting, I'm considering it for my next trip. I might just come and relax here.
Let's take a look at the coordinates of our walking route before we start.
In addition to being close to several famous temples, just a 250-meter walk away,
there are also many interesting cafes and restaurants around the accommodation.

Whether you prefer to borrow a bicycle from the hotel
for a scenic ride or go for a walk to exercise,
the choice is entirely up to your individual preference.
However, for the two of us,
holding a camera and the handlebars of a bicycle at the same time
would be difficult.
Therefore, let's walk, shall we? ^_^
The morning streets are quiet and peaceful.
There are very few cars, even though it is a workday.
I walk and take pictures, enjoying the fresh air and peace of mind.
In the morning... at Wat Phumin.
In front of the temple... it is quiet and peaceful.
There are not many people around, unlike during the day.
"Whispering Love of World Fame"
This image, known as "Whispering Love of World Fame," depicts the iconic sweethearts, Grandpa Man and Grandma Man, in a classic Nan-style pose. It is the most famous image of the couple and has become a symbol of the city of Nan. Its presence is ubiquitous, adorning various locations throughout the city.
The first light of a new day in Nan Province is beautiful.
This is my second time taking photos
at the frangipani arch in front of Nan Museum.
The first time, I barely got any good photos
because it was packed with people!
This morning...at the frangipani arch...it's all ours
We took photos to our heart's content and got an album out of it.
There were a few people passing by...
to exercise in the morning.
They came and went,
not a problem for our photoshoot.
After a leisurely stroll, it was time to return to our accommodation. We snapped a few more photos at the hotel before setting off on our next adventure.
