The White Temple is beyond magical! Must-visit! It was a long journey around 3 hours from Chiang Mai and quite tiring for the whole day trip as we visited 3 different places, but it was definitely worth it.

The tour guide explained in detail the life of the elephants, the differences between the various elephants, etc. The itinerary was not tight at all and there was adequate time to rest.

The store is near Chiang Mai Gate, with roadside parking available. It happened to be the first group of customers in the morning, and the atmosphere was very leisurely. I will come again next time.

The massage on my first day in Chiang Mai was so good. The masseuse put all her heart into it, so I really enjoyed it! Also, the staff had smiles on their faces, so I felt good! Great massage, great memories, the best!!

My tour guide's name is Del. He took us through every street very carefully, and stopped on both sides of the main river to tell us the history of a hundred years ago. Our English level is not very good, but Del is still very patient and speaks slowly word by word, so we can understand 80% to 90% of the content, and the walking speed makes people feel very relaxed. Upon further questioning, I found out that he is a retired man and a doctor. He also shared with us a lot of things about healthy dining. We are so lucky to meet this tour guide. People who come to Chiang Mai for the first time are highly recommended to take this trip. If you are as lucky as I am, you can also meet him.

It was fun. They put on a lot of makeup, and it kind of reminded me of makeup from the 80s in Korea. Hahaha. I followed that tradition because it's that country's. And gold is definitely Thailand's personal color, so it looks great if you wear clothes in that color. They sprayed my hair with spray, so I had to shampoo it twice, but it was a good memory.
