Chiang Mai is the most culturally significant city in Thailand; rich in heritage and populated with welcoming people. The city boasts over 300 temples, known locally as 'wats', reflecting the country's predominant Buddhist religion. The region is also well known for its handicrafts, which include hand-woven Thai silk, delicate silver jewellery and an ancient tradition of umbrella making from mulberry paper and bamboo. The city's many markets make Chiang Mai a shopper's paradise. The Night Bazaar is a bustling nightly event, while the less-touristy Sunday Walking Street on Ratchadamnoen Road also features vendors selling unique handmade items, clothes and food. Chiang Mai also offers an abundance of restaurants, from street hawkers to fine dining. Nimmanhaemin Road is the city's most salubrious food and nightlife zone, while restaurants such as Riverside and The Brasserie also offer great food and live music on the banks of the Mae Ping River. Chiang Mai International Airport has daily connections with Bangkok, as well as other Southeast Asian destinations, including Singapore, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Laos, and Cambodia. Travel within the city is easy. Song Thaew's (red converted pick-up trucks) are the most convenient way to get around.
