In the northern center of Thailand, there is a small town unlike anywhere, Chiang Mai. Xiaocheng has come into everyone's attention for a series of films and televisions such as "Thailand" and "Chinatown Detective". This is a city that needs to be savored, so as a Chiang Mai travel enthusiast, I recommend 10 different routine trips for you to make your trip to Chiang Mai as leisurely and natural as a local!

Catch an early set

The Chiang Mai Farmers’ Market is mainly based on locally grown organic crops, and many villagers will also sell their own handmade no-additive desserts and pastries. There are home-grown vegetables, home-brewed whole grain tofu, native eggs, and various field vegetables that are not seen in big markets. These ingredients are the favorite home-cooked dishes of Chiang Mai people. HobbyMarket is co-located with the farmer's market, located in the outfield area, mainly used clothing and household goods; Rustic Market is mainly based on creative hands, where many opponents are interested in locals.

Worship a temple

Buphalan Temple (also known as Huagongmiao Taiyu Temple) is a temple that mixes Burmese and Lanna styles. It is small in scale, but it has all the five internal organs. The main temples are in the style of pavilions and towers. It is also the filming location of the movie "Tai囧", and it has become even more famous since the movie hits the air. The architectural details of the temple are meticulously crafted, as small as the wind chimes hanging on the pagoda, they are all exquisite and extraordinary. Since the temple was originally a virgin forest where wild animals appeared, the animal sculptures in the temple have a wide variety of lifelike shapes and attract people to stop.
