Things to see and do North

The Mae Kha canal (khlong) is a small tributary of the Ping River that runs through Chiang Mai. The area was previously neglected and most famous for its pollution and litter... This part of the canal was completely rehabilitated at the end of 2022 and has become one of the city's must-see spots. Along its 750-meter length, craft and souvenir stores, small restaurants and cafés line either side of the canal. The area is particularly photogenic, with its small Japanese-style bridge and numerous lanterns.

Every Sunday in the late afternoon, meet up along Rachadamnoen Road to enjoy the multitude of food and craft stands. This is the largest open-air market in Chiang Mai. Ideal for strolling, enjoying some local specialities and gleaning memories for your loved ones. We make our way through the crowd, listen to groups performing here and there on the way, and a pleasant atmosphere floats along the street. A must have!
