Agnes_storytelling
When I went on my trip to Chiang Mai, I got to see many beautiful temples. If I had to rank the top three temples, it would be the Gold, Silver and White Temples. The Gold and Silver Temples are very close to each other, but the style and colours are different. The Golden Temple is simple and has many mysterious lights hanging around. The Silver Temple is exquisite and beautiful. The White Temple is also a little silvery and it is very beautiful. The Silver temple was very attractive to me, although it is not as Majestic as the White Temple. The nightly and non-stop temple affairs are very lively and interesting.

Chiang Mai in the off-season is a paradise on earth!
🌸
Chiang Mai in the off-season is definitely worth a visit!
Slow pace, moderate prices, lots of activities, and great shopping!
A super cost-effective experience!
Here is a super thoughtful guide to traveling to Chiang Mai in the off-season, so you can have fun and peace of mind!✨
The best season to avoid the crowds🍃
Chiang Mai's off-season is generally from April to September each year. Although this is the rainy season, the rain is mostly short-lived showers and will not affect your itinerary too much.
Moreover, there are fewer tourists at this time, and there is no need to queue at attractions and restaurants, so you can enjoy the feeling of having the place to yourself anytime and anywhere!🎉
Must-see attractions for first-time visitors to Chiang Mai📍
1️⃣
Wat Phra That Doi Suthep
On a sunny day, you can overlook the entire city of Chiang Mai, and on a foggy day, it is even more ethereal! Remember to wear comfortable shoes, as you will need to climb stairs to get to the top of the mountain.
2️⃣
Nimmanhaemin Road
A paradise for the literary and artistic, the street is full of cafes and craft shops. In the off-season, these stores are more leisurely, perfect for a slow stroll and taking beautiful photos📸
3️⃣
Night market adventure
The Saturday and Sunday night markets are popular places to visit, but in the off-season, they are less crowded, and you can find your favorite handicrafts at a lower price and taste Northern Thai snacks, such as mango sticky rice and Chiang Mai sausage!🍴
💕Cost-effective accommodation and food🏠🍜
Accommodation in Chiang Mai is super affordable in the off-season! High-quality hotels and B&Bs are often half price or even lower. It is recommended to stay near the Old City or Nimmanhaemin Road, which is convenient for travel and allows you to experience the local atmosphere.
🍜Food
In addition to night market snacks, don't forget to try Northern Thai curry noodles (Khao Soi) and Tom Yum Goong soup. In the off-season, there is no need to make reservations or queue at restaurants, and you can enjoy the leisurely atmosphere of Chiang Mai while eating, which is simply a blissful experience!🌟
💕Thoughtful tips📝
1. Bring a light umbrella or raincoat to protect yourself from sudden showers🌧️.
2. Check the weather forecast before you go out, as some outdoor attractions are not suitable for visiting on rainy days.
3. Just bring a jacket, as the malls, airports, and mountains are still a bit chilly.
In short, Chiang Mai in the off-season is a place where you can slow down and relax completely. Come here to enjoy the quiet town without the crowds and find your "paradise on earth"!💖

Chiang Mai|Super Lively Saturday Night Market and Sunday Night Market
During my days in Chiang Mai, I visited many markets, and the most impressive ones were the Saturday Night Market and the Sunday Night Market.
.
The similarities are: there are a lot of people 🥹, and the variety of food is almost the same, and they all taste good. I think the vendors probably set up their stalls at the Saturday Night Market and then continue at the Sunday Night Market the next day 😂.
.
The Sunday Night Market is larger in scale than the Saturday Night Market. The food stalls are in alleys or small lanes, which are not easy to find. The main road mainly sells small items like soap and fridge magnets. In this regard, the Saturday Night Market is more friendly, as the main road is filled with food stalls 😍 (I come to the night market just to eat delicious food❗). You can eat from one stall to another, or buy a cup of rich and delicious mango juice 🥭 from the next stall while waiting in line for barbecue. It's very convenient. After eating and drinking, there are also stalls selling clothes and handicrafts where you can slowly browse without getting tired 😌.
.
🔷 If you mainly want to buy some handicrafts and small items as souvenirs and eat some food along the way, I recommend going to the Sunday Night Market;
🔷 If your main purpose is to check out the food and buy some small items along the way, then I recommend going to the Saturday Night Market.

Discover the treasure bread market in Chiang Mai, a perfect combination of food and culture!
In the suburbs of Chiang Mai, there is a market that I love. She has a special affection for the bread market there, and the relaxed atmosphere makes me linger. This market is located at the foot of the beautiful Suthep Mountain. Although it is a bit far from the city, there are not many tourists, and more are local residents who come here to buy bread.
The breads are all handmade by locals, soft and delicious, and she always buys several each time. These breads are not only delicious, but the process of making them is also full of fun. She likes to watch the process of the bread masters making bread carefully, and every detail is full of the spirit of the craftsman.
After buying the bread, take a few steps to the right, there is a small pavilion. The small wooden bar in the pavilion can get coffee for free. Next to the bar is a small blackboard with the words 'free coffee' written on it. The coffee here is fragrant and rich in flavor, and every sip is memorable.
The aunt who sells pizza and egg rolls in the market, wearing an elegant half skirt, the price list is also embroidered by her. I praised her for being elegant, she was very happy, and she made an appointment with me to meet again at the Rainforest Market tomorrow. Her smile is so bright, as warm as the sun.
On the river side of the market, there are two picnic mats. Sitting there tasting bread, looking at the scenery by the river, feeling the breeze on the face, such time seems to stand still. A couple with a dog next to them, they tasted bread while playing with the dog, the picture was extremely warm.
Looking at them enjoying the good times on the picnic mat, I couldn't help but sigh, the people of Chiang Mai really know how to enjoy life. They not only know how to make delicious food, but also know how to taste the beauty of life. In such an environment, everyone can find their own happiness and joy.

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

I believe that many people who have been to Chiang Mai will visit the famous "White Temple" and "Black Temple" in nearby Chiang Rai. However, there is also a "silver temple" in Chiang Mai, but there are not many people.
Chiang Mai's "Silver Temple" is called Wat Sri Suphan. It is located on Wua Lai Road outside the south gate of the ancient city. In fact, this road is where Chiang Mai's famous "Saturday Night Market" is located.
As you walk into Wat Sri Suphan, you can clearly see the "Silver Temple". As the name suggests, Silver Temple is a silver temple, and the Silver Temple in Chiang Mai is probably the only temple in the world that is hand-built in pure silver and complex silver and aluminum. It is unique.
No tickets are required to enter Wat Sri Suphan, but if you want to enter the "Silver Temple" tour, you will need to pay the tickets. The ticket price is not high, only 50 baht, which is about 10 yuan, which is related to Compared with the ticket prices in China's tourist attractions, it is simply too "conscience."
However, Chiang Mais Silver Temple has a special rule that has caused discontent among many tourists, that is, women are not allowed to enter the temple. Since everyone has paid the tickets to visit, but the women can not enter the temple, then their tickets are not white? What do you think about this?
SHUN.
The Thai name of the Silver Temple, called Suphan Temple, is next to the ancient city of Chiang Mai. There is a Buddhist temple built in silver. The sun is shining and unique. Almost all of them come here in Thailand, and there are very few tourists, so there is no need to worry about the phenomenon of crowding people. You can pat you with confidence!
It should be noted that the Buddhist temple prohibits women from entering. According to legend, 500 years ago, sacred objects were buried under the silver temple, and women entering this place may hurt her.
Actually playing in Chiang Mai, there are many chic temples in the alleys, and its equally good to shoot!
Baidu map location Suphan Temple, you can find the silver temple!
