Chiang Mai Travel Information

Chiang Mai

Locals are proud of Chiang Mai's 700-year history and the city's original layout--a neat square surrounded by a moat and vestiges of the fortified wall and the four main gates--still exist today. Once the center of Buddhism in northern Thailand, Chiang Mai is now the economic, cultural and communications hub of northern Thailand. The area, famous for its elephant training centers, is mainly comprised of jungles and mountains, which are home to many hill tribes. In addition, the area's national parks are filled with exotic flora and fauna. Chiang Mai's diverse landscape and visitor activities are such that both backpackers and luxury travelers can enjoy themselves to the fullest.
