Locals - enjoying diner with you !
It was a joy to see this kid eating the italian pasta !
Chiang May (northern Thailand) in combination with " Chiang Rai (location of the "long neck" tradition is a topic when visiting Thailand.
This area is the location of the "Mountain people" of Thailand
Most of the time - after arriving in Bangkok - the second destination of Thailand (750km from BK and for backpackers - a train will bring you there).It is a paradise for lovers of nature - many excursions are organised - visiting the locals (long neck ladies )- elephant rides - this is paradise - but very touristic !
The hotel acco's are the best - the night markets are cheaper than BK
Buy here your fake "Breitling" watch !! |
| Symbolic power in Thailand |
|  | Witness of power This is Asia - visiting Thailand or China - this statue and symbol of power and believes - you will find at many places ! |
Jungle trek Unavoidable in north Thailand - a trek by elephants through the jungle - the green lung of this country - and so different from "smokey" Bangkok.
But please be well dressed for rainy conditions ! It is a rain forest you will visit !! The umbrella should be first listed on your packing list ! | | |

I agree that the area around Chiang Mai is not (yet) so touristily overcrowded as Phuket. It seems we had the better weather than you. Love your pictures! | bpacker Thu Dec 28, 2006 03:14 UTC
