Chiang Mai burning rice fields

[glegolo18]

Hi my wife and I are planning to go up now to Chiang Mai for tourist-purposes. I have back of my head a memory that I have been reading here for a couple of years ago, that it is not so healthy to go to Chiang Mai in march because the thais are burn ing and do fires like crazy and the air is so polluted so it is being dangerous...

 

Can you give give me any idea how bad it is, or also if it is not bad at all...

Thanks for your responses.

Typically the air here (CM) isn't very good during March and most of April; however, this year has been better

than normal....the AQI was actually in the green a couple of days earlier this week.  At this moment, My IQAir app

says it's between 65-71, shows Bangkok at 64, Pattaya at 58, and Phuket at 56,  All fairly close at the moment (but,

admittedly, CM is usually worse this time of year).

I just left there was surprised how good the air is now.  Last year at this time it was much worse.  Hope it continues to be good CM can be a really nice place.

There, fixed it for you. All you have to do toggle over to English in the top righthand corner. (I can't do that for you)
