SARAHJ101 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 We had previously booked a few days in Chiangmai and are now wondering if it will be safe to be there just now? We actually live in Bangkok so am presuming it will be safer than here anyway but our intention was to get away from it all! Also I know its Songkran time but we are not staying in the main area. Is Songkran just as 'manic' as it is here and Pattaya?? Hope not! Any info much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorgerebote Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 <H3 style="MARGIN: 0in 0.25in 0pt 0in">I was just at Immigrations and another government venue; I had lunch near the Tha Phae Gate and a beer on Loi Kroh. Other than the chaos of Songkron everything is mellow.</H3> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thailandbluegrass Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I'm in the Mae Jo area of CM and all is well here. Im very close to City Hall and have seen no reds. Just some kids starting the water fest etc and I think downtown is happening but sure it is safe here and for sure 200% safer then Bkk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
