The event was beautifully decorated with flowers.

The final day of the flower festival was packed with people.

After finishing the flower festival, continue walking to the Sunday walking street.

This temple is located just outside the alley where I am staying, making it very convenient to visit.

It's lunchtime! Let's head over to Darawittaya School for some delicious and affordable food. There's a wide variety of dishes to choose from.

After a satisfying meal, we drove to Wat Phra That Doi Kham to pay respects at the temple.

The temple offers a panoramic view of Chiang Mai city from its observation deck.

Next, stop by the Brandnew Field Good store, located near Doi Kham Temple.

An additional entrance fee of 50 baht is required at this point.

We were fortunate to arrive just as the pandas were being fed, so we were able to see Chuang Chuang wake up and eat bamboo.

After eating his fill, Zhuang Zhuang walked around before going back to sleep.

Lin Hui is sleeping soundly. After waiting for a while, she still hasn't woken up to eat.

Chiang Mai Zoo is home to a diverse array of animal species.

The zoo features a French-style garden, perfect for capturing memorable photos.

The car was returned to the airport almost two hours late, but the shop was kind and only charged an additional 50 baht.

Before heading back, I stopped by the airport post office to send postcards recounting my travels. I had no idea there was a post office at the airport.

The last light of the day is so beautiful. See you again, "Chiang Mai".
