Chiang Mai Part 2

Nice cottage. For a moment, it doesn't even look like chiangmai. Feels more like some upcountry house in some temperate European country.


View of Chiangmai city on the way to Doi Suthep.

Huge water fountain at the top of the flower garden

H'mong Village

Ooooooo.. Marijuana leaves....



poppy flowers.. Was told that white and red ones are the more potent..

our 30 minutes "tourguide" She's the one sitting on the left. She just came up to us and offer to bring us around the village for a small fee which is to be decided by ourselves.



Front entrance of Doi Suthep. They said, if u did not go to Doi Suthep, u are considered never been to chiang mai.


seriously, i wished that guy did not pose for this picture. I am supposed to take a candid shot of him..

Lazing doggie on the temple ground
The main pagoda of Doi Suthep. It is believed the top contained the relic of Buddha, which is part of his skull bones.
