Seems more normal there, old town like a cemetery! Chiang Mai city center is literally a ghost town now. I know at least two of my favorite Thai eateries just opposite Kad Suan Kaew who have packed up their bags and gone back to their hometown due to lack of business since the pandemic started. Most of the shops have closed and 'for rent' sign put up. Edited January 8, 2022 by EricTh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that because many places have closed , the ones left open are busy because there are ones of the few left open and everyone goes there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropposurfer Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Hire some 150CC Honda ADV bikes and ride to Chiang Rai for the weekend. Easy short ride and glorious at this time of the year. Lots of beautiful roads to explore. Can book Saturday nights stay easy through Agoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
