Chiang Mai Hotels

CHIANG MAI
The North’s largest city, Chiang Mai is the centre for tourism, either in the city or visiting hilltribes, elephant camps and trekking amid wonderful mountain scenery.

Chiang Mai is over 700 years old. The old walled city with its moats contains some magnificent temples. Wat Phra Singh is famous for its Lanna-style architecture, beautiful wood carvings and superb murals. Nearby is the ageless Wat Chedi Luang, which lost the top of its massive chedi to an earthquake 400 years ago. Doi Suthep mountain looms over the town, and the highly-revered temple at its peak offers superb views of the surrounding countryside.
