Took a red taxi trucks, or "songthews" to Doi Suthep, the journey was approx 25 mins. Doi Suthep is famous for its relic tale, where a white elephant carried the relic all the way up the mountain. From the temple( peak) can see the whole Chiang Mai city

The three king monuments

Local selling fresh fruits, bought some custard apples.. taste good when frozen

Cooking noodles in a boat? Quite a unique way to attract customer :)

The coolest vehicle in town "tuk tuk". The red and white colored on the right belongs to the traffic police.. how cute

There are a wide variety of local food sold at the Kalare Bazaar food court, the Anusarn market sell fresh seafoods.

The most interesting goods there, are cute arts- i found some handmade felt cuties .. yippeee























Its so "me", the bazaar is a good place for window shoppings, those whom enjoy endless bargaining and the so intrigue me with art works.Our hotel is just next to the bazaar, 2 mins walk - kinda strategic place to stay for short trip. Every night, start at 6pm - 12 pm the streets and market are flooded with tourist, after a tiring walk our usual activities was Thai massage..

















Sa wa dee Kap.. Mc Donald.
At the Kalare Bazaar, you may enjoy your dinner while get entertained with free traditional dances

Had "wawee coffee", quenching the thirst after strolling around the old city. Chiang Mai is very much a safe and friendly place.. was mistaken 3-4 times as local Thai from the Northern..

Wat Ku Tao was the last temple we went, before leaving for Borsang "San Kam pheang" the handicraft highway. Ku Tao is built by the Burmese hence architecture wise potrayed different ethnics personalities and culture

The wall inside the temple is painted red as the background, the gold painting tells story silently
Wat Chiang Man with a 700 years of history, built by the Lanna Thai founder King Mengrai.

Wat Saen Feng

Wat Bupparam

Wat Mahawan




































Singh means "Lion" for Thai. Whitewashed chedi added some contrast to the temple Very interesting and meaningful phrases nailed to the tree - reminding the devotees of the good teachings
