Chiang Mai Citywalk, wandering around the streets and alleys of the old city

💄Hot mom says: The romance of Chiang Mai's old city needs no further introduction. Here it is quiet, elegant, and the air is fresh. You can wander aimlessly in the old city, cross the jungle and wade through the water, or go crazy shopping at the night market... 📍Tha Pae Gate: 🔹The most popular attraction in Chiang Mai, it is the best preserved of the four city gates of Chiang Mai. The red brick walls and flocks of pigeons add to the romance here! When there are fewer tourists in the early morning or at dusk, you can feel its sense of vicissitudes and age. 🔹On both sides of the city gate is the moat, in front of the gate is a small square, where you can feed pigeons. There are vendors selling pigeon food, corn for 10 baht a bag. 🔹If you want to take pictures, you can pay 100 baht to ask locals to take them. It is recommended to wear a white long skirt, which is more photogenic. 📍Chiang Mai Night Market: 🔹There are two night markets near Tha Pae Gate, both a 10-minute walk away, which can be visited together. ✅Sunday Market 🔸The Sunday Market is the largest night market in Chiang Mai. Every Sunday, from the square outside Tha Pae Gate on the east side of the old city of Chiang Mai, along Ratchadamnoen Road and several nearby branches, it crosses the main road in the center of the old city of Chiang Mai, all the way to Wat Phra Singh. There are food, daily necessities, clothes, handicrafts, etc. on the night market. ✅Saturday Walking Market 🔸The Saturday Night Market is located outside the south gate of Chiang Mai, separated from the Chiang Mai City Gate Night Market by a road. The Saturday Night Market goes south along the moat, with all kinds of snack stalls, fruit stalls, and handicrafts along the way. The scale is smaller than the Sunday Night Market, and there are relatively fewer people. 💯Restaurant recommendations: ✅Mr. Kai's Restaurant 🔸Located in the old city, close to the Saturday Night Market. The restaurant serves Northern Thai cuisine, is cheap, and the dining environment is quiet. 🍝Recommended dishes: Various fruit juices and shaved ice, curry stir-fried seafood, mango sticky rice, tom yum soup noodles, pineapple fried rice, cashew chicken ✅Wishing Tree Scenic Restaurant 🔸The location is a bit off, it is recommended to use Grab to call a car. Authentic Thai food, large portions, and the price is a bit high. 🍝Recommended dishes: Curry crab, mango shaved ice, pineapple rice, BBQ shrimp, mango sticky rice
