Most walk-able city on Earth?
By Jon. Filed in Travel |
Chiang Mai. One of those cities you HAVE to arrive by train in, as it shows off its location to the best, ESPECIALLY when arriving as the sun rises over the nearby peaks. Its a stunning view to be awake for, and lucky I had a window berth, however my camera does not like the idea of murky window’s being in the way, so folks you’ll have to come to the region to see it for yourselves!
As for Chiang Mai itself, it seems very compact, and compared to Bangkok, very quiet as far as traffic goes, which makes walking around it a joy, and I do like to walk around places don’t I? Oh and as Lucy mentioned on Facebook the other day “Monk, Monk, Monk, Monk…”, but what do you expect in a small city with nearly as many Wat (including Wat U Mong!) as Bangkok?
Off to the Night Bazaar tonight – or maybe I’ll stroll down Moon Muang and find a bar to chill out in, either way I am looking forward to my time here in the North – including some treks, maybe massage classes. Honestly I am not really sure, don’t even know how long I’ll remain here, either way there is a huge amount for me to do should I stay a good while.
