The Place
Chiang Mai, Thailand
City introduction

Moated old city, mountain temples and Thailand's kitchen garden. Chiang Mai is northern Thailand's moated old city: 700-year-old temples inside the walls, jungle temples on the peaks above, night bazaars, cooking schools, and a café scene that rivals Bangkok's at mountain prices. It's the base for ethical elephant sanctuaries and Doi Inthanon's trails.
