The House by Ginger Restaurant

The House by Ginger sits on Moonmuang Road on the edge of Chiang Mai’s Old City, housed in a Thai National Heritage mansion dating from 1937, located just 10 10-minute walk from the Old City.

The Good View is a long-established restaurant on the riverside bank, and many locals come here for dinner. The view is not fantastic, but the atmosphere with live music is fun and very casual, plus the local dishes are good and not expensive

Kiti Panit Restaurant

Kiti Panit is a superbly renovated old Chiang Mai shop converted into an excellent restaurant. The building was abandoned for a very long time and in relatively poor condition when one of the young family members decided to return it to its former glory and turn it into an elegant but casual restaurant

Wat Phra Singh

Wat Phra Singh is a significant one. It looks modest and darker than most other wats from the outside but is superb inside. Walk to the back to admire another temple and a shiny golden stupa

Wat Phan On

Wat Phan On is on the side of the Walking Street Market, with a golden Chedi and a beautifully decorated main Temple. On Sundays, the temple is occupied by food vendors and tables for customers to enjoy.

Wat Chedi Luang

Wat Chedi Luang is the largest and most spacious, with an immense and majestic central stupa. The square brick shape of the main chedi with elephants surrounding it is very iconic

Doi Suthep

Doi Suthep is the most iconic landmark of Chiang Mai, but it takes about an hour by car to reach from the downtown city centre

Tha Pae Sunday Walking Street

Tha Pae Sunday Walking Street is similar to the Sunday walking street market in Phuket, but on a much larger scale: approximately 1 kilometre long and extending to adjacent streets
