Chiang Mai is rich in scenic beauty and also in Thai culture. Included in the Chiang Mai City Guide picture above are some of the top reasons that tourists and visitors alike decide to book a ticket to Thailand’s Rose of The North city. We have included an infographic which lists some interesting facts about our city. However, to truly appreciate the unique Lanna culture, we recommend that you book a journey and a hotel in Chiang Mai to experience the Lanna capital firsthand.
Festivals
For locals and visiting tourists alike, the traditional Thai Festivals such as Yi Peng, Loy Krathong and Songkran are an exciting celebration. These public displays of happiness and celebration are one of many reasons why Thailand is nicknamed by visitors as “The Land of Smiles”. During the popular Thai festivals, it can be a busy time for the hotels in Chiang Mai, and we recommend guests booking their accommodation early.
