chiang mai, I love you
Flew back to Chiang Mai last Sunday and it was a treat to be back. A
good mix of seeing friends and getting back to some favorite spots.

chiang mai
Chiang Mai, Thailand, Night Bazaar
Chiang Mai (population 250,000, founded in 1256) is a city in northwest Thailand. While Udon Thani was a lot of village and Bangkok too much sprawling metropolis, Chiang Mai is just right.
The city is a mix of interesting history (it's still surrounded by a moat and crumbing fortress walls), lots of Buddhas and wats (temples) that add to the Asian flair, a slight European influence (with cafes and the odd jazz bar or beer garden here and there), it's very walkable, and there is lots of fresh and cheap local food.
