I recommend taking a day trip to Lamphun - it's sort of like a smaller, quieter little version of Chiang Mai. Only about 30km away from CM city. Take the road that goes along the river (not the highway), and you'll see some absolutely beautiful scenery on the way. There's a temple there that predates Chiang Mai by about 300 years, it used to be part of a separate kingdom.
@JustAlexVidottoАй бұрын
Oh really! I am very interested in this, can I take my scooter? Or would I need to get a ride from a company? Thank you so much for this idea.
@petermkellyАй бұрын
@@JustAlexVidotto Yes you can take your scooter, I used to go cycling along that route some years ago before I got lazy. Look up Wat Phra That Haripunchai in Lamphun on google maps. Best to start off from Changklan road in Chiang Mai and then head south along the Ping river for the views. Check the flood situation first though :) Hopefully in a couple of weeks things will be back to normal. It's a great trip when the weather is good but right now might not be the best time.
