cm das Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Can't give you a 100% exact translation but it looks like a tulip festival being held from Dec. 20 til Jan. 14 at the park commemorating the HM the king's 80th year, off the canal road more or less opposite the 700 year stadium.

realthaideal Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I think I'm gonna go tomorrow. How is it that I've never noticed a large park opposite 700 Years Stadium ? Has it got a big sign or Pavilion/Sala style building visible form the road ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cm das Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 If you're coming from Huay Kaew, the park is just past Green Lake Resort (& the lake) on the right hand side. It's actually well before you get to 700 Years Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realthaideal Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Thanks for the Tip CM Das. Yeah, I'll be going this afternoon... in just an hour or so, and coming from Huay Kaeow to Canal Rd. The lake you refer to is the big one on the rt side that sometimes has fishermen on it, and there's a giant hotel built on the one side of it (I believe used to house visiting families of the military) ? I think I have a good idea already, and do speak Thai and imagine I can ask my way around alright enough... though there aren't that many people to talk to out on Canal Rd.

WinnieTheKhwai Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 (edited) Chiang Mai is the second most visited place worldwide by whom ?? Your mistake. You expected 'someone's girlfriend's translation' to be 100% of what is written. Don't make those kinds of mistakes again. (It says: "Second best place for a holiday in the world." ("Na Thiow" = 'like to visit (for fun/leisure)'.) So this may come from any of such surveys that you often see where the researcher/journalist/hack needed one or two exotic entries in the list to make it look more global and interesting. (This is how 'The Pub' ever got on such a list of 'best bars in the world' in 1986. ) And also how Chiang Mai often makes it to lists of most 'X' in the world. So I don't doubt that ever a "survey" was done that listed Chiang Mai as a number 2 city. (The survey could have been "Best city trips to take in January" or something. ) Edited December 27, 2010 by WinnieTheKhwai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maccheroncini Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 may be you'll discover more a bit later Got my girlfriend to do it, the translation I mean. I knew she was good for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
