Chiang Mai Culture on the StreetsChiang Mai culture is more than Wats, museums and historical sights even if there seems no end of them. It's on the streets where people come and go every day of the year, run businesses, celebrate and spend a large part of their lives that the city shows its' face.Take a look around the city for some of the sights and sounds of people living their lives here. Here are some random views of Chiang Mai culture as I see it. Please check back from time to time for additions to the gallery, everything from ancient temples, festivals, life in tribe villages, the luxury of exclusive spas and resorts and occasionally some beautiful natural scenery.
