BritManToo Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) This is a popular spot with tourists in Chiang Mai. I was up there at lunchtime today, and hardly any tourists at all, shops all empty. I've never seen it this empty, usually full of cars and Songtaws trying to get in or out, and people milling around. I was quite surprised.

jak2002003 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I am not sure that photo was taken today. You can't see the clouds because of the smog now.. and the sky is grey / brown. Maybe it was better at higher elevation? If so, and it was indeed very quiet... I might escape up there tomorrow for some clean air and relaxation.

CNXexpat Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I was at Doi Suthep and Doi Inthanon with friends before yesterday. Quiet but not dead. Many western tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LomSak27 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Was up at Wat Phra That Doi Kham this morning this morning. A nice layer of smog stretching out over the Chiang Mai valley. That said, quiet, but steady numbers of visitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a decent Kao Soy restaurant as well. Quite nice gardens with lots of pretty flowers for an entrance fee of 10bht. I always thought everything was very reasonably priced. The air quality was a lot better than in town, despite the smoggy views, and it was surprisingly cool.
