Chiang Mai, Thailand

Temples, night markets, pad thai

Ancient temples, misty mountains, a food scene that punches way above its size.

Founded in 1296 as the capital of the Lanna Kingdom, Chiang Mai spent over 600 years as an independent northern Thai stronghold before formally joining Siam in 1939. Its moated old city and hundreds of temples are a direct legacy of that long independence.
