Chiang Dao, Thailand - Day 8 & 9 of our northern Thailand road trip

Northern Thailand keeps getting better and better. It’s days 8 & 9 of our 15-day road trip in northern Thailand and we are officially leaving the Mae Hong Son loop and heading north to the beautiful town of Chiang Dao. In this video, we explore the town of Chiang Dao, walk 500 steps up to a temple on a hill surrounded by mountains, visit the Chiang Dao caves, explore the morning market, and eat some of the best noodles we had in Thailand.

Is it safe drive, any big animals ?

Statistically, Thailand has a high rate of traffic fatilities, so it is less safe than other places. Mountain roads in the north are often quite narrow and twisty, people often pass dangerously. We were surprised at how well paved most of the roads were, and the traffic outside of major areas was quite light. I wouldn't hesitate to drive again. The only big animals we saw were some elephants in the river beside the road. They were not wild, but part of a sanctuary.
