Introduction:

Chiang Mai is a city built on the roots of a traditional heritage that dig deep into the soil of time. It's a city with a beautiful cultural personality of its own. In addition, it's been blessed with much majestic beauty in nature. The people themselves are an unforgettable part of Chiang Mai. Handicrafts of silk, silver and wood are timeless souvenirs for visitors from all over the globe. Along with all this, a wide variety of accommodations, restaurants, and entertainment all help to make Chiang Mai one of Thailand's prime tourist attractions.

In recent years, the population of Chiang Mai has grown very quickly, and the city is now Thailand's second largest, with a population of more than 200,000. Growth has brought with it concerns about air pollution and rush-hour traffic, though these are not nearly as bad as in Bangkok. Other problems have occurred as a result of the influx of tourists. These include deforestation and the displacement of tribal people in nearby hills and valleys to make way for resorts and roads. Despite all this, Chiang Mai retains a magical charm. It is an exciting city with a rich cultural heritage offering numerous sights and activities for the visitor.
Some major attractions include historical and religious buildings, bustling markets, nature parks, and stores selling an incredible variety of handcrafted products. Chiang Mai is much smaller than Bangkok and, even if you are unfamiliar with maps, it is fairly easy to find your way around. Perhaps the best place to start is the old city. This central part of Chiang Mai is contained within four walls and a moat, originally built for defense. The walls date back to the city's founding in the 13th century but were rebuilt in the 19th century. Several of the original gates in the wall have also been restored and serve as useful reference points to help you find your way around. Particularly interesting is the busy Tha Pae Gate. Around this area lies a plethora of restaurants including Easy Diner (The), JJ's Restaurant and Bakery and Ratana's Kitchen. Several small hotels also dot the vicinity (for example Lai-Thai Guest House, Roong Ruang Hotel and Gap's House. Within the old city runs a maze of roads. Taking a walk around some of these quiet lanes can be a pleasure in itself. You will come across Chiang Mai's most interesting temples, starting with Wat Pan On, which stands close to Tha Pae Gate. Farther into the old city you will find others, including Wat Chedi Luang, Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chiang Man.
To the east, between Tha Pae Gate and the Mae Ping River, lie the main business and shopping areas. Perhaps the most popular of these is Chang Klan Road, home to the increasingly popular Night Bazaar. Here you can find a variety of crafts and other local products. On the same street is Kalare Food and Shopping Center, along with banks and moneychangers. If shopping makes you weary, take a respite in one of the restaurants. For German food, try German Hofbrauhaus, which offers a selection of Western dishes. Or try the Red Lion English Pub and Restaurant or White Lotus Restaurant and Bar. There are some good hotels in the area, too. Among the more popular are Chiang Inn Hotel, Royal Princess, Downtown Inn, Suriwongse Hotel, Imperial Mae Ping and Porn Ping Hotel, with its popular discotheque, Space Bubble. East of Chang Klan Road, at the corner of Nawarat Bridge along the Mae Ping River, is the Municipal Tourist Information Center. A little further up river are a major post office and Warorot Market, a bustling market selling a diversity of northern food as well as cheap clothing. As you cross Narawat Bridge, Tha Pae Road becomes Charoen Muang Road. From here you can catch a bus south to the historic old city of Lamphun National Museum.
The western side of the old city reaches out toward Doi Suthep Mountain and the beautiful white chedis (spires) of Wat Suan Dok. Further on is another beautiful temple, Wat Umong. From the northwest of the city, Huay Keaw Road leads to the top of Doi Suthep mountain. Along this road are Kad Suan Keaw, a popular shopping mall and the sprawling Chiang Mai Zoo. If you come here, be prepared to do a lot of walking, or hire a driver to take you round, as the grounds are very large. Further out is Huay Keaw Waterfall and, at the end of the road, proudly sitting on top of the mountain, is the revered Wat Phra Tat Doi Suthep, an elegant temple looking down over the city of Chiang Mai.
A few kilometers further up Doi Suthep lies Phu Phing Palace, a popular retreeat for the royal family. Several quality hotels, such as Chiang Mai Orchid, Amari Rincome Hotel and Holiday Garden Hotel, are also located on the west side of town.
Along the road to San Kampaeng (Route 101), handicraft stores line the road. Bo Sang Umbrella Village provides a great place to buy locally produced souvenirs, particularly umbrellas. Beyond Bor Sang lies San Kampaeng, a small market town, and San Kamphaeng Hot Springs a great place for a soak. The countryside around here is beautiful and unspoilt, so do bring a camera!
Northward from the city (along Route 107), you can find Mae Sa Elephant Training Center and Chiang Dao Cave, a place of great natural beauty. If you prefer to stay in this area rather than journey out from Chiang Mai, there are many beautiful resorts to choose from. Green View International Resort and Country Club, Pong Yang Garden Resort and Regent Resort Chiang Mai are a few possibilities.
Other attractions beyond the city limits include hiking and white water rafting as well as incredible natural scenery, such as the awesome Doi Inthanon National Park, the highest peak in Thailand. Many trips outside Chiang Mai can be arranged independently as plenty of buses serve the provinces. Alternatively, book yourself an organized tour. These range from one-day trips around the city to longer excursions incorporating activities such as rafting, hiking or exploring hill tribe villages. 3rd Eye Travel, Trekking Collective Company and Chiang Mai in Action are just three tour agencies that can help you plan your itinerary. An exciting way to get an alternative perspective is from the air. This expensive yet unforgettable option can be easily arranged.

Topography:
A large part (69.31 %) of Chiang Mai's land is covered by mountains and forests. These generally run in a north-south pattern through the province and give birth to several streams and tributaries (such as the Mae Jam, Mae Ngud, and Mae Klang) which in turn feed important rivers and irrigation canals (such as the Muang and Faay) which provide the water necessary to Chiang Mai's agriculture. Chiang Mai's largest and most important river is the Ping, which originates in the mountains of Chiang Dao and flows southward for 540 kilometers (337.5 miles). It is along the banks of this river that Chiang Mai's flat, fertile valley atea lies.
Chiang Mai is also home to Inthanon Mountain, which stands 2,575 meters (8,448 feet) above sea level and is Thailand's highest mountain.

Climate:
Cool Season : (late October to end of February). average temperature 21ºC and much cooler at night. The coolest months are December and January.
Hot Season : (early March to end of May) Average temperature 29.9ºC. The hottest month is April.
Rainy Season : (early June to end of October). Average temperature 25.5ºC. The wettest month is September.

Population:
With a population of 1,547,085 Chiang Mai is one of Thailand's largest provinces. Of the above number, 170,348 are currently living in Chiang Mai's city area with the rest distributed throughout Chiang Mai's 21 districts, 2 sub-districts. 80% of the people in Chiang Mai are locals by birth, and speak a sialext that is a slight variation of the central Thai language. The remaining 20% is made up of Thai nationals and foreigners who have moved to Chiang Mai to work, study, or retire.

There are many hilltribe people living in the mountainous districts surrounding Chiang Mai such as Omkoi, Mae Jam, Chiang Dao, and Mae Ai. Statistics reported by the Tribal Research Institute of Chiang Mai stated that in the year 1992 there were 1,049 hilltribe villages in the Chiang Mai province, constituting a total of 174,195 people. Of this amount, 106,116 were from the Karen tribe, 27,392 from the Lahu (Musur) tribe, 17,198 from the Hmong (Meo) tribe, 10,873 form the Lisu tribe, 8,862 from the Lua tribe, 2,609 from the Akha tribe, 1,145 from the Mien (yao) tribe, and 485 from the Palong tribe. The hilltribe people are agricultural; planting fields, raising animals, and hunting for a living. Since each tribe has its own culture and language, they blanket the hills of Chiang Mai with an interesting patchwork quilt of diverse variety.

The majority (80%) of the Chiang Mai people earn a living through agriculture and agricultural related professions. The second largest vocation is tourism and its directly and indirectly related jobs. General commerce and industry-mainly in the form of handicrafts, and of processing agricultural products-are the two other major professions in which the Chiang Mai people are involved.

Chiang Mai’s restaurants offer the variety of styles and dishes to make you feel right at home. Whether it be Western food, such as Italian, French, American, and German; or Asian, such as Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Chinese, Chiang Mai has it all.

Most Thai dishes have a strong and spicy taste, some of the favorites being as follows; Somtom, a papaya salad mixed with peppers, tomatoes, peanuts, shrimp, and lime; Tom Yam, a spicy, sour soup that is made with chicken, pork, shrimp, or beef; and of course, the many different curries. These, however, are only a small representation of the many delicious dishes that Thailand has to offer.

Northern food offers a variation from Thai food, as it is a blend of both local and Burmese tastes. Most of the spices used in Northern dishes originated in Burma, thus giving Northern dishes a distinct smell and taste.

Some of the popular Northern dishes indude the following: Nam Prik Ong, which has a sweet, sour, and spicy taste, is made from minced pork, mixed with pepper sauce, and tomatoes; Nam Prik Num, stronger in taste and made from barbecued peppers and anchovies; Larp Koi, made from minced pork or beef, mixed with peppers and other spices, is eaten with fresh vegetables; and Khow Soy, a Chinese - Muslim egg noodle dish filled with chunks of beef and chicken and lightly sprinkled with coconut cream and garnished with garlic and crispy noodles. Again, this is only a small representation of the complete list of Northern food.

BREAKFAST: As most Thai people prefer to eat breakfast at home, the majority of restaurants and shops remain closed until later in the morning. In the downtown area, there are some restaurants which serve early breakfasts, and almost all of the hotels and guest houses do provide a breakfast service. There are also numerous shops and vendors that sell X shaped pastries called ‘patangkoh’ and a porridge called ‘joke’ as local Thai breakfasts. In addition, markets and shops sell breads and fruits along with Thai and Northern foods.

LUNCH: Lunch time offers a variety of choices for dining. All-you-can-eat buffets at large hotels feature Western, Chinese, and Japanese foods at between 80-200 baht per person. There are also many restaurants featuring foods of all types. And of course, there are the noodle shops located almost everywhere throughout the city.

DINNER: It is the time when almost all the restaurants around the city are in full swing. Whether you plan to dine Italian or Indian, ChiangMai’s dinner- time restaurants provide the array of dishes to satisfy your tastes. At this time there are also food gardens which offer a variety of dishes among a pleasant atmosphere of both light and live music. A little note on the dress—in Thailand you are not expected to dress up for dinner at a restaurant, although you may certainly do so if you wish.

KANTOKE DINNER: It is also possible to sample Northern dishes at one of the 'Kantoke Dinners' in ChiangMai. At this event, visitors are seated in the floor around a circular tray with Northern dishes on it and eat while watching traditional Thai and Northern dances and hill tribe culture shows. Kantoke Dinners provide a good way to get to know both the Northern food and culture at the same time.
