Old City

Chiang Mai's Old City invites exploration with narrow lanes revealing golden temple spires and saffron-robed monks. The ancient walls frame a world where incense mingles with street food aromas and traditional wooden shophouses line pedestrian-friendly sois. Wat Chedi Luang's brick chedis and Wat Phra Singh's ornate halls showcase the rich Lanna heritage waiting around every corner.
