Wednesday, 02 July 2008

Chiangmai, one of the oldest cities of Thailand, is known as the country’s northern rose. Green mountains surround this fantastic place with a city in the valley. Its breathtaking and lush scenery offers every tourist numerous activities especially to those hungry for adrenaline rush. When planning for an adventure trip in Chiangmai, here is a list of the things that you and your family would enjoy.

Chiangmai is famous for its night market it opens from five in the afternoon and ends past midnight. The night bazaar offers tourists a huge array of goods such as clothes, shoes, bags, souvenir items and a lot more. All these goods come at prices you can afford. Along with these goodie items, you can also find sumptuous foods offered in numerous restaurants. They serve many dishes including Japanese, Korean, Italian, Thai and a lot more Western foods. Night market also consists of clubs, bars and other forms of entertainment.

When in Chiangmai area, you should not also fail to visit the Chiang Dao caves. Your children and other family members will enjoy this place. Located at the north of Chianmai, the Chiang Dao mountains are blessed with caves that are fun to explore together with your family and friends. Around the caves, there are also temples which are famous for tourists and other Thai locals. So, if you want to enjoy your Chiangmai getaway, the Chiang Dao caves prove to be the perfect destination.

Another Chiangmai destination is the Doi Suthep. Like the Chiang Dao caves, this place is also perfect for your family adventure. This is considered as one of the most famous Thailand temples. Traveling to this place is fairly easy as you can just rent a car or a tour van. Once on top of the place, tourists will enjoy the market with full of foods and other Thai products. When you are done with your shopping or looking around the market, you can now directly head to the Doi Suthep temple. There are 300 plus stairs which would lead you to the temple. Traversing the path going to the temple could be a good form of exercise. Before entering the temple, you first need to pay 30 baht. But this amount of money is nothing compared to the temple and the Thai culture you will witness.

For perfect relaxation and an ideal place to commune with nature, the Bua Tong waterfall is the place to visit. This provides you the best place to relax and have fun with your family. You can climb to actually face the falls. Around the falls, you can still have a taste of the sumptuous foods through the little restaurants that surround the area.

And lastly, the elephant camp in Chiangmai is the most famous attraction. These camps allow you to ride, feed and pet these huge animals. You are able to ride at the back of the elephants as you trek the jungle. After the trek, you will also be entertained by the different elephant shows. With the numerous Chiangmai, you would actually be asking for more!
