About Chiang Mai Attractions

Chiang Mai used to be the province of the Lanna kingdom. In the present time, it is a blissful and laid-back city ideally chosen by travelers to relax and recharge. You can either take part in a host of activities performed here to simply discover the vastness of the city. The atmosphere and ambience of the city will never disappoint you.

Chiang Mai is located 700 km (435 miles) from the north of Bangkok and outlooks a lush valley running through the banks of the Ping River. It was in the year 1296 that Chiang Mai was founded and named as the capital of the ruling Lanna Kingdom. At present, it is an example of that city where the past and present seamlessly merges into a wonderful city with modern buildings, heritage and green landscape. You might feel that Chiang Mai is a quiet city amidst the bustling capital but still be surprised by its rich tourism. The city of Chiang Mai is flecked by virgin rainforests and gurgling waterfalls along with peaceful, little villages. Chiang Mai, Thailand is also famous for its markets and distinguished elephant sanctuaries.

Chiang Mai etymologically refers to “new city”, and has been doing justice to its name since 1996. History has it that King Meng Rai founded the city as the capital of the Lanna Kingdom during this year. It was also that time when the Sukhothai Kingdom was established. As King Meng Rai himself was a religious person by nature, he supervised the construction of the city’s famous temples that still find a place here. One can experience the wonders of two worlds simultaneously in Chiang Mai - the historical and the modern. You will find pagodas and temples which are centuries-old. Chiang Mai also offers some of the best adventure activities such as trekking and rafting. You can also locate some modern convenience stores and custom-made hotels. The people of Chiang Mai are true to their culture and thus one can find a number of elephant camps around the place. Chiang Mai remains one of the most beautiful destinations in Asia. For a traveler, Chiang Mai simply has a host of experiences to offer. For a resident here, Chiang Mai is the home one returns to!

Chiang Mai is bordered by Myanmar in its north. The Shan state of Myanmar is actually the border state of Chiang Mai in Thailand. The interesting thing is cross-border trade takes place here between the Kew Pha Wok checkpoint and the Ban Lak Taeng checkpoint. These places are also major tourist sites. On its South, Chiang Mai is engulfed by Amphoe Sam Ngao, Amphoe Tha Song Yang of Tak Province and Amphoe Mae Ramad. Some of the major attractions here are - Sam Ngao Cliff, Bhumibol Dam, Mae Kasa Waterfall, and Thee Mo Bo Waterfall. On its east, lie the provinces of Amphoe Mae Suai, Amphoe Mae Fah Luang, Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai and Amphoe Wiang Pa Pao of Chiang Rai. Chiang Mai borders its west with Amphoe Mueang Mae Hong Son, Amphoe Pai, Amphoe Mae La Noi, Amphoe Mae Sariang, Amphoe Khun Yuam, and Amphoe Sob Moei of Mae Hong Son Province.

    Anant's 7 days trip to Chiang Mai

    We booked a 7D/6N Krabi & Phuket package with Trip Trail through Travel Triangle for our family of 4 adults and 2 children this was our first international tour, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, Yugal and his team displayed exceptional professionalism – e
    very detail of the itinerary was shared with us in advance, making the trip completely stress-free. The tour was meticulously organised – from smooth airport transfers and well-planned excursions to family-friendly activities that kept both adults and kids engaged. What impressed us the most was the constant support from their local team in Thailand, who were available round the clock to address queries or provide assistance whenever needed. This ensured we could simply relax and enjoy our holiday without any concerns. Another standout aspect was their transparency and integrity. All expenses were clearly communicated, and when flight charges reduced, they proactively revised and lowered our package cost. Such honesty is rare and truly commendable. Overall, we had a memorable and worry-free holiday, thanks to Trip Trail’s expertise and dedication. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a well-curated, reliable, and professionally managed travel experience. Special thanks to Yugal and his team for making our family vacation so enjoyable. Highly recommended

    I recently booked my Thailand trip with Navigatio, thanks to Parul Singh, and I must say it was one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had! ✨ From Phuket to Krabi and even the breathtaking Phi Phi Islands, everything was planned to perfection. The hotels arranged by Navigatio were really n
    ice – comfortable, clean, and located in prime areas, which made exploring so much easier. Their tour package was well-curated, covering all the must-visit spots without making it feel rushed. What impressed me the most was their excellent communication. The team was always available to answer queries, provide updates, and guide me throughout the trip. Everything from transfers, sightseeing, to activities was smooth and hassle-free. Thanks to Navigatio, I could just relax and enjoy my holiday without worrying about the little details.

    Ashish's 6 days trip to Chiang Mai

    Over all experience was OK. But telhere were 3 4 issue in the trip. 1. It was said by travel triangle agent khushi that your C fee has been waived off, but at the tillme of fimal payment she and the team denied completely. This was very bad from their side. 2. When it was asked to book hotels wher
    e Veg breakfast should be there but out of 3 hotels 2 hotels were not having veg breakfast.. only breads were there. 3. Travel agents have not informed about the security deposit in each hotels.. hotels have charged 2000 baht as security deposite. As checked with other customers in hotels they were not asked for deposits, as land package includes hotels also, so if there was any deposit then it should be included and informed in starting. 4. Why customer email id is not given for any updates.. our flight no. got changed and we were not informed about. This was very serious issue.. Trip was good. Enjoyed.. but it could be more better as more places could be covered as more leisure time was given.

    The trip was very well executed in terms of punctuality and pick up and drop facilities. There was a specific issue I would like to highlight. The lunch provided from the boat operators during poda island tour and Phi phi island tours was absolutely not acceptable for vegetarians. They only had ric
    e and salad for vegetarian eaters. This definitely needs improvement and thoughtfulness. Also for snorkelling there was no guidance provided from boat operators. It was only for people who knew how to swim. Sunset at Poda island
