A Photo Gallery of Chiang Mai ( "New City" )

capital city of Northern Thailand

Chiang Mai is the largest and most culturally significant city in Northern Thailand. 

It is located some 700km to the north of Bangkok, 

among some of the highest mountains in the country. 

The city stands on the Ping River, a major tributary of the Chao Phraya River. 

Chiang Mai has many attractions for the thousands of foreign visitors

who come to the city each year. 

Chiang Mai's historic strength derived from its important strategic location

on an ancient trade route, and the city served as an important centre

for handcrafted goods, umbrellas, jewellery ( particularly silver ) and woodcarving.
