Going to Chiang Mai NEED HELP!

[shun07]

Hi I'm going to Chiang mai for 6 days this coming April. My question is, is it enough for me to go chiang mai and bangkok within this 6 days or should I just stay at chiang mai. I just worried that I will feel bored in Chiang mai. I intention to go there is to go to the long neck village and visit temples and sightseeing. Please advice!

what do you wanna do in bkk?

 

[shun07]

probably go shop around as I'm afraid that 6 days in chiang mai is too long for me

 

[RSKeisuke]

if shopping is your main agenda, then bkk is a must.

shopping in cm is limited to its sunday walking street market and night bazaar is way too touristy. if you can skip bkk, maybe you can consider pai which is about 3 hours minibus ride away from cm.

from cm, a one day doi inthanon day trip is possible too

do you think I should spend 4 days at CM and 2 days in BBK?

hi,

if I don't visit temples, are there enough attractions / things to do to fill up 5 or 6 days in Chiangmai?

Thank you.

Thank you.

you will need to venture out from CM for those activities.. lot of day tours like rafting, elephant camp, tribe village etc.. clubbing if you are into it.. eat all day, massage all day, basically just chill out relax.

RSKeisuke, CM at year is more COLD than cool?
I heard got 12°C? WAH

 

[addict951]

shun07, you intend to fly budget air between BKK & CM?

actually, CNX nothing much really, unless you like going sight seeing or visiting temples (which I love).

maybe you can go and see the pandas at the chiang mai zoo.

another thing is that there is very LIMITED taxi service in CNX.

chiangmai is more for laid back chill. i went without an itinerary too. can just walk into the various travel agents there and book a day tour to the doi inthanon, long neck village (karen tribe) etc. many temples too. i was there about 3 days. chill and relax place.
