Chiang Mai is one of the significant cities in Thailand and is widely renowned for being a key tourist attraction. The sheer scale of sights and experiences in Chiang Mai is staggering to say the least.
Wat Chedi Luang
This is one of the many hallmarks of the Chiang Mai skyline and is one of the city’s most popular attractions. This site once boasted a colossal pagoda that was built between 1385 and 1402, during the time of King Saen Muang Ma. An earthquake in 1545 reduced the pagoda to half its size.
Elephant Jungle Sanctuary
If you wish to visit a place where you can witness the world’s biggest land animal in a setting that is centred on their welfare, then this is an ideal choice. This site basically functions as a retirement home for elephants used in the tourism and logging industries respectively. Visitors can interact with the elephants through activities such as bathing them.
X-Centre
It would be a shame to visit Chiang Mai without experiencing her largest theme park and entertainment centre. With everything from paintball to off-road ATV experiences on offer, X-Centre is also part of leisure excursions hotels in Chiang Mai, such as the likes of Anantara Chiang Mai Resort, have to offer.
Doi Suthep-Pui National Park and the Tribal Village Within
This national park is one of the best things about Chiang Mai, and its fascinating village is situated at its highest point. This is definitely an essential experience.
